You're not kidding it was a parking lot out there. We had lines in at 5am and already had to be careful of other boats. Could barely get 100 yards without 4-5 boats intersecting at once by the time it hit 7am. Congrats on the fish as a we heard a few boats hooking up early...unfortunately we were not one of them. Next time! | ||

| I got there yesterday at 6:40 am. It was a zoo!!! No joy for me. I came too late to the party and the "cake" was already gone. At 1 pm I gave up. While I cleaned the cockpit, my 9 year did manage to jig up a nice 29 pound bass which saved the day. Congrats on the tuna!!! Mike | ||

| 5 hookups is impressive. there is such a small window to get these fish there right now. then add in all the boats trying to fish the same area...the odds are stacked against you for sure. we were there early too and managed to go 1 for 1, a 50" fish. there is a temptation to leave all the lines in with the 1st fish on as that fight eats up a lot of the precious short window to get multiple fish. but with all the boats around it's hard enough to maneuver the fish out of the mess w/out worrying about the spread at the same time. either way it's still a blast! | ||
