We climbed aboard the MIRAGE with anticipation of the next mornings seabass bite. Capt Tucker and the crew were aboard to greet us as we arrived, and gave us the safety briefing. After his briefing we had a raffle of SFR T-shirts, SEAGUAR FLOUROCARBON, and some FISHWORKS products. We were up early before grey light and ready for action, it wasn't long and we heard the cry "hook-up", we had broken the ice and had a seabass on the deck, we ended up with 4 seabass, 1 42lb halibut and 1 barracuda to start the day. We headed out to deeper water to get some rockfish for the bags and were soon filling our bags with some quality Reds and Chuckleheads. After a quick boat limit of Rockfish, we headed back to shallower water for some Whitefish to finish off the day. Our final totals were 4 White Seabass, 1 Halibut, 1 Lingcod, 1 Barracuda, 220 Rockfish and 37 Whitefish. Thanks to the crew for another epic day on the water and a great job. Congrats to Toby Brittian for your Jackpot 42lb Halibut and winning a $25 gift certificate from BOBS SPORTING GOODS. If you would like any of the pictures please email me at [email protected]
