Aboard the First String 07/29/2011

That's Sal above the bait tank aboard the First String. We got back from a 2-day trip and what turned out to be a long boat ride with no fish or at least for me there was no fish. Current were a little cold and there wasn't much fishing going on under the patties. we looked but no luck. additionally the ocean was a bit choppy with 15 knot winds and 3-5 foot swells. all that makes for a boring boat ride. Not much more to say about that.
