Sunday Plan Of Action

OK the plans are set. In stone. No turning back now!!!

High tide is at 8 AM. More or less. So Ill be at the ramp between 7 and 8 AM. More or less. Then I leave the dock on a slack / outgoing tide. To the offshore hunting grounds.

Once the depth finder reads about 250 feet I look at the water to note its color. It should be deep blue. And then the fun begins!!!!

I have to look for birds. Birds indicate fish. I also have to look for crap floating in the water. Crap floating in the water (bodies, sea weed, shipping pallets, tarps, whatever) attract fish.

Anyhow - spy reports have indicated the following three species are hitting the bait.

1. King Mackerel.

2. Black Fin Tuna.

3. Dolphin


Ill take any of the above, but if I could pick I would pick the tuna first, then the dolphin. A bonus yellow fin tuna would totally rock! But the yellow fin is a long shot. A very VERY long shot. Even longer than anything listed above. To be honest, I would stand a better chance finding sunken Spanish treasure than a yellow fin tuna.

Actually catching anything is sort of a shot in the dark. My track record for catching anything is dismal.

Either there are no fish in the ocean, or I suck at fishing. I am still trying to figure out which is the case.
