After my guy cancelled I went out Solo to beat the wind and rain . 

Found a good screen 120 to 150  and worked it . 

Temp was way down . 55 deg at 115 ft of cable 

 

I went 3 for 5 . All good kings landed . Best was a 18# king .Deepest hit was 125 ft.  

 

3 shots on a Bullfrog Glo 11" flasher and Gary D rig  . That's been my best flasher this year . It's usually white but they won't hit it . Also got a double on 2 stacked spoons , A Carbon , and Glo Frog . 

 

It was lonely out there this morning , nobody's lines to cut off

Don’t you love it when people cancel at the last minute ?  happens way too often.

It was iffy from the beginning. 

 

Which is why I bought the boat I bought , so I could easily fish alone .

I couldn’t believe nobody was out.

Better safe than sorry. CG has enough to do

It wasn't that bad 

 

On the other hand this morning wasn't great . 

 

Was almost no wind on shore . So I figured I'd give it a go . The farther I went out , the worse it got with the North west wind . Made one pass at 120 . I ran go for broke 2 flashers only .  Same Bullfrog went off at 100 . Bait head skld up leader no fish and that was it . 

 

One boat was next to me and I think he hooked one but I could not tell . 

[HB2]

And man , it sure looked and felt like fall out there .

For 1 footers and no rain?

I was thinking the same thing.  I ran the boat to Bald Eagle at 30mph on autopilot and never touched the wheel.  It was perfect.
