We took another run at them yesterday, had a limited time to give it a try.  The woman I pay to hang with my dad needed me home by 8:30, so I told the guys we had to pack it in at exactly 7:15.  Baits in the water at 3:30, not a single bump on three rods for almost 4 hours.  As I was watching the clock and my rod at the same time, at 7:13 my rod does the single bounce.  I pick it up and wait a couple minutes........nothing.  Reel it in and find the mackerel head crushed just shy of the hook.  Next time I'm gonna choose my day more carefully, half our session was spent during the slack tide. On the bright side, we've gotten bit at least once every session in the last month.  Until the next time..........

Ugh...  nice Verne.  I bet the bite was just about to start up with the tide swing.  You do so many cool things for your dad that's it's totally great that you still got out fishing and still got home in time to hook up the lady watching your dad.

You're due and as Steve would say "The best time to fish for sharks is anytime you can get out to fish for them."

At least they’re still hanging around. Not sure if I’m in the right hemisphere the way things have been going.
