rockfish on the Hick
Went out with Dakota today on the Hick, didn't get started till about 10 AM.
Trolled for about 90 minutes before we started marking decent fish.
There were bait balls from 25 ft up to 10 ft all over the place, looked to be a tough bite. After 2 hours we had diddly squat. Finally started marking good schools of fish here and there. Once we found them, it was "GAME ON"!
We started catching nice 6-12 lb rockfish, a coupla white bass and one lone hybrid.
After we hit 18 fish we decided to quit at 20.
All good plans of mice and men...we hauled in #20 but before we could haul in lines, #21 snuck in for a quick snack.
Had a very enjoyable time with Dakota, doesn't seem like we get together as often as we should. We'll have to start making time!
