Well we finally got out of the wind today. We fished behind the island for yellowtail, and some big halibuts. It was a fun day as the long rod guys got in on some surface plugging, with the salas 7 x,'s being the jig of choice. As I am writing this Joe Armstead just landed a 40 lb. sea bass and Bill Worden landed a 40 lb. halibut. Good for them, we are going to head up the line......
