[SALTY LADY]

FRIDAY:
WENT TO THE 26 MILE HILL HOPING FOR A TUNA, NO LIFE THERE EXCEPT ANOTHER GOOD SIZE CUDA. HEADED TO THE CANYON & PULLED 6 DOLPHIN OFF THE LOBSTER POTS. THE REAL EXCITMENT CAME ON THE RIDE IN. I WAS TAKING A NAP IN THE CABIN WHEN WADE SAYS " COME ON OUT, LOOKS LIKE A STORM AHEAD!" GREAT! WE PREPARE FOR WHAT LOOKS LIKE A MONSTER HEADING AT US. WE ARE 27 MILES FROM THE #1 MARKER AT LYNNHAVEN WHEN WE GET TO THE STORM. ALL IN ALL, THE STORM WAS NOT BAD WE RAN 3 KNOTS TRYING TO OUT RUN IT, BUT HAD TO BACK DOWN TO 20 WHEN THE SEAS FINALLY PICKED UP. LIGHTNING AROUND, BUT NOT RIGHT ON TOP OF US. MAKE IT IN & ZACK'S WIFE, REBECCA IS VERY HAPPY TO SEE HIM . I THINK THE STORM HAQD HER GOING A LITTLE BIT. ALL IN ALL A GOOD DAY.


SATURDAY:
HEAD TO THE CIGAR. FIRST REEL GOES OFF AT THE CHENANGO. SMALL AMBERJACK. MOVE INTO DEEPER WATER & FIND A VERY CROWDED WEED LINE. PULLED A NICE GAFFER OUT OF IT & A SMALLER ONE AS WELL. HAD SEVERAL HIT & MISS & LOST ANOTHER AT THE BOAT. MAKE A SHORT RUN & PUT LINES BACK IN & HEADING TOWARDS THE FINGERS. REEL GOES OFF! DECENT WAHOO COMES IN THE BOAT. ROUGHLY 20-25#. LOTS OF ACTION. WE LOST MORE THAN WE CAUGHT, BUT A GOOD DAY.


UNTIL NEXT TIME,
