Plans were to hit the islands for yellows, but they were apparently all of the smaller models, so we went out on a big local hunt.

We made a ton of mack and made the run.  We got lots of bites and stolen macks, but none appeared to be the right kind.  We saw a buddy catch a 20 pounder, but the rest of the fleet lay dormant.

I finally get slammed on the heavy iron just to have it never really stick and lost mu only good chance of the day to get one.

I was triple d!cking it today to give myself an opportunity, but it wasn't in the cards. the water was beautiful though!  We made a few dozen moves for no luck.

We worked it hard, but Lady Luck was not with us today.  I did manage 5 bags of bait for sharking, so not all was lost.   8)

Hard to believe "The Master" didn't get his target :o The water sure looked nice though.
