Congrats again on the halibut. I caught tomcod on squid, irons, megabaits, fishtraps, and sabikis. A wide open tomcod bite is almost as exciting as a wide open sculpin bite, minus the adrenaline rush of trying to avoid getting poisoned. Caught some incidental rockfish and sand bass, as well.
Too bad the other panga didn't show. We could have had a competition on who could limit out in the least number of drops. Once we got on the spot, it was nice reds, whitefish, and lings on every drop. Most of the reds were 3-4lbs. PAL got about a 5lb whitefish. The lings were typical size. Good fun. Couldn't find the Humboldt Squid, which I'm kind of thankful for.
All in all, a good trip wide open on big laughs. The 1 3/4 hour border crossing wait at Tecate last night wasn't so funny.
