Well Gang!
Where to begin, the fishing is hot right now. Get out if you get the chance but be safe. We were out all weekend but Saturday, in some awesome swells however in the right boat for the job. Here was one.
To answer the question, "do Mann's work"..Uh...Hell Ya
My advice, be sure to have the option to use planer boards and down riggers if you can. Just gives you more options. The Friday we were one of very few boats without boards, virtually all fish that day came off the boards. We got zilch.
Saturday, they came off a mix of boards and riggers, as well as Sunday. Just have as many options as you can.
These two were caught Sunday. I kept a six pounder to eat, while my buddy kept an 11 pounder to mount. All others were returned to catch another day.
Here's shot of us out Sunday....Saturday was at least 3 times as bad...
Final tally for us was 5 Sheepsheads and 7 Wallies. Not great numbers, but considering the conditions. We'll take it. We put in at the Ferry for Sunday, but we were marking them all over.
Very Important!!
Don't forget to tune your bait each time you get a strike. These Mann's don't take much to get whacked out of shape. Very easy and fast to do..Keep some needlenose with you.
