I missed ya !

I hit the snooze button too many times this am, finally left the house at 6am, launched at Sandwich at 9, puttered around the mouth of the canal, and then Scortons Creek area, then headed to the Fingers about 10. Hit some smallish bluefish, and tried to raise folks on 68/69 - no joy on that, and I could see Pilgim Monument, so I headed up to Race Point, as I was hearing some prety good tuna chatter.

Went around the back side to Peaked Hill Bar, running a Rapala deep down center, and birds and daisy chains off the riggers. Had a tuna take the rapala, and damn near spooled me on a 113, till I cranked up the drag, and then thumbed it for extra.... Pop !!! Oh well.

Had knockdowns on both riggers, but was blueifsh, not tuna, still, picked up a nice big blue.

Also had an icredible whale show, there were about 4 - 5 of them right in close, breaching, tail wagging, the whols 9 yards.

Scooted back down to Barnstable harbor, checked out the boats on the outside, went inside - nada, as far as Seacrafts. Tried again on 68/69, went back out to the fingers to troll some more, and called some more on the radio.

Oh well, I have enough beer to last awhile, had a hellova day OTW, the boat ran great, and I'm burnt and dead tired.

Till next time !!
