| we left harbor view marine 6 am on frenchy's boat blueprint. weather was beautiful and we hit the first bottom spots around 0830. drifted our numbers and worked our way from the southwest edge to the northeast. after catching some mingos a just legal aj, a couple of nice kings, a scamp and a 5 ft bull shark we decided to try some 300 plus feet spots. i stopped butterfly jigging because every drop resulted in a king hookup and the risk of losing the jig. on the way there we spotted some bobos and i hooked one on a popper. just when i got him close to the boat a 6+ ft hammerhead shark came from under the boat and ate my bobo. i could resist and snagged the shark with the lose popper. 30 sec later the shark got some nice jewelery. first deep spot taylor caught the first on the tilefish. we decided to switch to cut bobo and we ended up with 8 golden tilefish, a scamp and a ?bigeye?.

On the way back i got a nice gag on one of those cheap gbbt "butterflyjigs" and some more mingos and porgies.
Emanuel got one of two chicken mahis. on the way home we tried to get some red snappers but i think the are already extinct. so we arrived home around 1900. it was a great trip with really nice people and a good catch.

| Sweet catch and nice report. My ? is how long will that battery hold a charge sitting on the ground? Or is it an old myth that they loose charge more rapidly while sitting on the ground.
