I was thinking of taking a bye this week due to a hectic week past and week ahead, but it was Tuesday afterall...
Went to the Bat Fight spot and it didn't disappoint. I had a few short runs I missed before hooking up with a lower 40" model.
His head was all puffed up and I went for the fun shot to show his good side. ;D

The night fell and I had at least 3 or 4 short runs as well as Steve. Well, Steve had more rod shakers than clicker runners, but that dude makes a GREAT fire! I always considered myself a great keeper of the flame, but Steve definitely has me edged out in that category.

Finally after a few more bait squishers, I got another legit run and fight! This one acted tougher than it s size, but was a respectable mid 40's in length.

All fish on small mackerel (cut in half). 6oz pencil weight with 80# leader on a 9/0 Octopus.
Otherwise, it was a great evening as usual... Gotta love it. 8)
From hero to zero in a matter of days. Still nice to be out.
Thanks for allowing me the pleasure of tending the fire.
Sure hope to be hitting the surf soon.
