Ashtabula 11 JULY 08

[Toxic]

Started out around 9ish at the 00 line straight out of Bula in 68FOW w/1-3's. We netted 5 real quick. From that point is progressively got worse by the minute. From 1-3 to 3-5 with occasional 7-8 swells rolled in. We trolled further east and picked up two more. We lost 1 around 30' behind the boat and 2 more before we even seen them. My friends son picked up a 28.5 eye Fish Ohio (his first) today and I picked up a Fish Ohio 23"sheephead. We decided to turn around and go back through. It was all over about that point. As we turned all heck broke loose and I to change my drawers once or twice LOL I called the dreaded Capt's call to head back in. We only fished 2.5 hours (all the gas up & back:(). We fished dipsy deep #3settings 210 & 195 #2 at 160 & 170. Rigger set @66FOW. Rigger took the biggest eye. Colors primarialy green or yellow copper backed.

FYI-The weather bozo's should have called a Small Craft this morning.

Good luck and be safe.
