There are some birds around and like everything else just got to get out and put the miles in.

Actually we hunted the top of the mountains with no luck. We got him on the bottom. The pic is deceiving.

Went sat Cleared the inlet by 5:45am and on the troll by 6:15. Trolled for 2 hours in the fleet, but didn't see any life so packed up and headed north. Trolled another few hours up north, but no marks and no life. On the way back in found a couple dolphins, casted on them but didn't seem to be holding any fish. Sunday morning I saw a lot of pictures of big fish boated. Will try again next weekend.

They were fired up this morning. Had a real good Tom come into decoys and beat up my Jake. My son was watching 10 yards to my left with binos and said he had triple beard. Couldn’t understand what I was waiting for. I couldn’t get great look at its beard. Eyesight isn’t what it use to be. Lol

Chucky is down in Zone 15! 21 pounder.

Still trying to get my EAT. earn a tom

Did it move like this?

April tog fishing has always had a special place in my heart for the sole purpose that I always seem to hook some solid fish. I’ve managed to break the 10lb mark a few times the last few years and always seem to do best in the spring. The last weekend of April has always been a good bite for me and yesterday was no different. We had a late start in the morning waiting for the wind to die down which took longer than anticipated but we made our way out. Plenty of bites to start, a lot of short life and fish coming up. Seabass were annoying at times but not unbearable. We put a 3 man limit together fairly quick and played catch a release, one fish up to about 7 or 8lbs at that point. We made a move late morning around 11 to try a new piece a few miles away. Once on it lots of quick bites, lots of shorts, and more seabass. I had a great day already but in the back of my mind was wondering if we were ever going to get a big fish chew. Well it happened. I took a crab out of the bucket, which proceeded to nip my thumb causing me to drop it on the deck. I squished it when it landed, picked it up and attempted to get a hook into it at that point. Normally I am very meticulous with hooking my crabs and how I fish them but this was an all legs, claws shell green crab sent straight to the bottom. A few small pecks to start and then a scratchy pull. I set the hook and my rod is doubled. I feel the head shakes but can’t process it it’s a fish or a snag intially. It starts digging and I get a few cranks. We played stale mate for a few seconds and finally I started slowly gaining ground. It was fighting like a big fish normally does but was HEAVY. I get it 3/4 of the way up and it slowly starts to take drag back down. Not a normal rip back down to the bottom. I was able to slow her down, get her back up while my buddy grabbed the net. In the water when we first saw it, we both said that’s a shark. A second later it breaches and we all freak out. My leader snaps once the fish is in the net and goes crazy. I’ve caught 3 12lb tog before and have yet to find my “teen” tog. The scale was bouncing between 19.8 and 21. That was good enough for me, I plopped her in the water and she was back down to the bottom within seconds. The fish of a lifetime for sure.
