You say you bought some squid, Do the commercial boats sell it out there or is from other yakers?

I wasn't out for this last bite but in squid spawns of the past it seemed the bite was between 100' and 200'. That was a nice checker though... Nice picture of the leo too.

I saw no less than 6 leopards on my way in Sunday around noon. All were in about 6' of water.
