Just Hook'n Posted August 4, 2008 Posted August 4, 2008 We braved the 5 foot waves Saturday night and managed to put one in the box. It came as we were quitting at 10:30pm 70fow 50 down on the rigger with napalm nitro. The real reason we went out at night was to stay on the water and fish in the morning. We were lines in by 4:45 and found them early between 95 and 105 fow. First one came on Electric Blueberry Nitro on a figger 45 down at about 5:30. Second came on Napalm Nitro on full core about a half hour later. Third was five minutes later on the Dipsey 120 back, Green Fireball Nitro. missed one after we switched lures on an NBK 45 down on a rigger. Forth fish of the day was on Full Core, NBK, in about 120fow at about 8:00. Next miss was just as we pulled that fish in the boat. Dipsey about 150 back went with a Green Dolphin. It was Skamania baby. I have never in my life witnessed a fish jump 6ft out of the water until now. This thing got serious air and the dipsey and lure went limp the second it hit the water. Bummer. The last fish came just as I got the empty dipsey rig to the boat (so if you are counting 3 fish in about 5 minutes). This one was Full Core Blue Dolphin and that one filled the box. Biggest fish was about 12 pounds. Most of the fish were good eat'n fish between 6 and 8 pounds. THANKS to GLF for all his tips last week Tuesday. Really made Sunday a sucess.
Satisfaxion_Gauranteed Posted August 4, 2008 Posted August 4, 2008 Good work guys and thanks for the report.
Just Hook'n Posted August 4, 2008 Author Posted August 4, 2008 Really appreciate the support guys. We have been catching one at a time this summer and that was getting old fast. FYI, I also just purchased a fish hawk 840 that I am looking forward to breaking in next weekend.
GLF Posted August 4, 2008 Posted August 4, 2008 FYI, I also just purchased a fish hawk 840 that I am looking forward to breaking in next weekend. Hummm...new rods, reels, lures, Fish Hawk. Next thing you know you will have a case of 2' idus. ie....you will want a bigger boat.
GLF Posted August 4, 2008 Posted August 4, 2008 I just thought of something. Did your new Fish Hawk come with the old probe or the new probe? If it came with the old probe, I would ask to exchange it for the new probe or return it and get a unit from another place with the new probe.
