    Longtail

    Snuck out for a quick solo fish and to test the engine's recent repairs this avo. The plan was to head outside of Point Lookout but with the engine still sneezing and the SP not looking it's best for mid falling tide I decided to stay in the bay. With only heavier overhead gear onboard the search for the LTs began. An hour later and the baits were deployed and 20 minutes later they were both taken at excactly the same time. My 1st thought was tangled lines until they ran different directions. The 50lb outfit was left in the holder and soon pulled the hooks (where were you John ). Meanwhile I was working the other rod. About 30minutes later the culprit was landed. Solo gaffing while using long rods has it's difficulties (especially with my gaff skills ).
    Last year we used to have sessions landing 4-5 of the bigger models each but with my sore back being a year older I'm sure these fellas are going to show me who is the boss this year . The LTs were still around but I decided to call it a short day and head back.
    At carlovers someone was nice enough to cut the corner and run over two of my rods (one just had an eye replaced last week) >. After firm words and an appology I learnt my lesson to not trust that all people drive with their eyes open.
    Cheers, Jay

    Nice LT in some way I bet you were glad to here that Ping on the other line, as you would have got in one hell of a tangle under the boat if it stayed conected.
