Holland 8/18 a.m.

[Dagwood]

Sorry I wanted to get this out last night but to much going on.

My Son and I went 4 for 6 Sunday morning mostly south of Holland. Launched at 6:00 and was 2 for 3 by 7:15 in 120 fow. Then nothing until about 9:30 when we picked up a small king in 175 fow. Picked up a steelie after that in 160 fow. Started to wrap things up and just ready to grab the last pole (300 CU) and the drag starts to zing. Thought it was a great way to end until the line broke. A good lesson as I knew I should have retied. It looked like a steelie because he jumped about 10 times trying to shake the MS Bloody Nose plug. Which had been our hottest setup. Oh well, it was a great morning out there.

Here is what worked-

Rigger- 65 down Carmel dolphin slider- 6 lb king

Rigger- 60 down MS RV wonderbread 6 lb coho

300 CU- MS Bloody Nose plug- 12 lb king

150 CU- Purple spatter back plug- 7 lb steelie

Good luck
