Had Steve and his friend Mike out today for a blackfish / striper combo. Hit some jig bass on the way to the reef, couple of shorts and two keepers, made our way to the reef and it looked like it was going to be pretty nasty for the guys to learn to blackfish. But since we were there I said lets give it a try. Didnt take long to see they wanted to REALLY chew today. Had two Blackfishing newbies looking like pros by days end. Mike caught on REAL quick and had his limit in a little over an hour. Steve made it up at the end. Limited out and headed to the barn, Mostly quality fish today, with one VERY big one getting bounced off coming over the side. Guess I should have told them we dont swing fish over 10 pounds. Figured the fish to be in the 11-12 pound range OOOPPPS Cant wait to see how great the bite can be once the EVIL ocean lays down .
We used the new Daiwa reels today, and they def are sweet.
BoaT rods have the Saltist 30 lw on them, I was fishing the new 30 ld, lots of power on a super sweet drag.
