Recommended Posts

Left CT at 3am and we were fishing at about 10:30am. Got out to about 115 and started seeing a good screen. Ended the day 3 for 4 and headed in a bit early to get our fish cleaned. 2 in the mid 20's and the other about 18. 2 on the riggers, 1 on 500 feet copper and 1 on dipsey 2.5 300 out. All on Chrome paddles. Will post tomorrow and post pics when we get back.

We have Got all our fish on e chips 7" and 11". Went back out this afternoon and got 2 more one of them close to 30.

The story of trip so far: 280 feet wire goes off and as we are fighting that fish the 500 feet of copper takes a wicked hit. So now we have two on. the fish swim right at each other and snap my copper goes limp. And I see my planer floating. We keep fighting the fish on the wire and all of sudden i see my copper tangle on the wire. We are able to untangle and retie the copper all with two kings still on. We continue to bring both fish in and land both only to see the planer sitting right next to us! 2 salmon in the boat copper back on and wire fine.

Went back out on the morning of 8/21. A little rough on the way out but definitely subsided as the day wore on. We didn't seem to do as good as others on the radio in the morning but again thats just radio talk so who knows. We went 1 for 3 in the early morning with one coho and the bite just died at 10am. Decided to head in at noon and hit the road for home. Great trip for us on my new boat. Did have battery issues but I am thinking I had a faulty battery. After reading about AGM batteries I am glad my battery didn't explode as it got really hot to the point that it melted some heat shrinking around my positive wire. Thank god for the 9.9 to bring us back into Sandy pond.

Here are some various pics throughout the trip.
