Dr. We did really well for yourselves last weekend out of Walnut. I didn't have them weighed but at least 3 were over 28". I think the biggest one was 29 7/8". We ended up pulling 3 man limit in about 6 hours.
We started out shallow and picked up a few but quickly switched over to our deep water program. Most big fish came from 50'. Dipsy's 3 setting out 185' and long line downrigger did the most work. We mostly pull harnesses, used all of the 4 dozen crawlers we had.
We fished the 58' area NW of marina.
