It was a bear out there till about 11 AM. Out by West sister, not only some 4 plus footers, but highly confused seas, waves coming fast and several directions. Blowing wind made it hard to even bait your hook. This is the second time this week I have gone out on a south wind, forecast calling for mild winds and less than 2 footers, yet almost gotten blown off. Strange. Weird thing is, both times it was south wind, and on shore hardly anything blowing.

Plus side, finished with our two tickets by 1:00. Best bite I have had this season. Good grade, 17 lbs at cleaners for 60 fish. Lay still on bottom for 6-8 seconds. Pull up 1-3 feet real real slow, they are there. If not, raise 3 more feet, drop again and repeat.
