So we got a late start heading out of GH around 9:30 with myself and two good fishermen buddies. Trying to milk the fuel consumption I headed out to the old BE buoy at 25 mph and got there in just under an hour. Coulda done it at 30 mph and arrived maybe 15 minutes sooner but I'd rather save the $$ for another trip at this point.
Taking Capt Curt's (thanks Curt!) advice and moving east a few more miles I figured I'd split the difference between 120' and 180'. Got to where it dropped off into about 140-150 and started our first drift. All three rods were bent on the way down as soon as we neared bottom. One short cod and two pollock. From that point on it was game on for 90 minutes of hammering pollack, about 1/3 of which came on DH'ers.
In that time we boated 30 fish and probably tossed back maybe 20 more becasue the cooler was filled to capacity, and lets face it, who needs more than 30 pollock? We only made 2 drifts and decided to go chase some haddock with clams. We moved about 1/4 mile east and started a drift on jigs at first to see if the pollock were thick. Not much there. Maybe it was becasue we were beat and spent from the bail fest. We just didn't have any more jigging in our arms. Decided to bag chasing the haddock and call it a day. Heard Capt Dave on the radio and tried to raise him but had no answer...
All fish taken on 21 oz Norwegians. Pink was the color of choice. We were hitting them so hard we decided to play with some color choices and white and blue were left untouched. Pool fish was an 18 lb'er. Fish were STUFFED on big sand eels
All in all we headed out of GH, drove for an hour. Dropped lines in one spot. Bailed like mad for 90 minutes and then ate lunch and essentially headed home. Doesn't get more efficient than that! On the way back we got treated to a great whale show.
Enjoy the pics
