Rough weather will take a toll on the old body. It's hurts worse with every year of age.
I gather from your report the new 08 stella was worth the price. Glad it performed well for you.
Few questions for you.
1. Are all the AJ's in NC non eatable?
2. Did you see many weed lines on the way to the AJ grounds?
3. Did the fin nor egg beater break on a fish or did Bret fall on it?
4. Did anyone try to give a Saragosa a workout?

Mr Bill ... my back is feeling it today ... the constant pounding on the way out and back just killed me and I literally I caught atleast 20-25 Aj's up to 80 lbs in 4 hours while dropping a 400g jig every drop in steep current. Physically demanding trip. Every drop I was hooked up. My adreneline was pumping so hard after every fish I just dropped and waited for the pain to start again but then I just became energized by the thought of bigger fish
The best thing about the fishery is its all catch and release, no one takes them because they have worms, we released every fish. No weed lines the current and wind ripped them apart alot of seperate grass
it started making noises on a decent AJ and then basically imploded, on the way up it started making noises. I said Chip Im praying I dont get zzzzzzzzzzzzz pounced on. ha ha
Bret has a saragosa I believe it worked fine. No tackle issues other teh the fin nor, I was tempted to toss it but I didnt want to ruin teh ocean with that piece of junk
