BigBen

Caught these a couple of weeks ago. I just got around to signing up for the new forum or I would have posted this report earlier. We left from shoreline about 6am and went outside the pass to find some of the reds on top water that I have been reading about on here. The birds were going mad right outside the pass on the pickens side but there was not any red activity. After casting a little bit my motor started to sound funny so we headed back inside. We trolled some pink stretch's for reds along the navy base with no luck. Then we moved a little further into the bay and I put somechartruese stretch 25's on. That is when the fun began. We had a double hook up right away, but only got one in. After landingthat grouper we put the lines out again and had another double, again just landing one. We realized after that pass that one of the eyes on my friends rod was messed up and it was cutting the line. We switched to another poll for our next pass and we got a single on the new pole. Biggest of the day was 28" and wegot some good filets off of them. I'm out now and need to go back for some more.
