Yeah

We messed up and left our first spot after no fish for a few hours, only to return back at 9pm and catch 4 reds and a black in less than a hour.

Did you guys do any good while the current was still rolling?

When we moved closer to fishermans, we waited for the current to slow, I mean we waited for 4 hours, it got down to 2 kts, then bam a weed line moved into us and the current was ripping hard again. I said forget it, and we picked up and moved back to the red 10 can area.

We went further out. And the tide eased a little and thats when the fishing picked up for us.

Yeah same here, the tide easing was the switch that turned on the bite.
