Fishing stunk. Water dropped to 65º in 2 days and put the fish off. I got a big ole stripe down my back (I only fish plastics, so I wasn't surprised). We tried deep (130') for the first hour. Those that fished squid on the bottom got a few (my brother got JP with a 4lb Sheepie). Maybe 10 fish overall for the boat. We moved downhill a few more times working in tighter and tighter. With less and less action. At the very end of the day we moved to 35' (off the point) and the calicoes started eating fly lined chunked sardines. On plastics I got a whole 3 bites. But we had fun and there was a light load and everyone was very friendly. Much better than being at work.
