We figured it out. The Cortes Bank isn't good right now for bait, or game fish. Somebody had to be the guinea pigs. Why not the boat full of fish already. Check that off the list of places not to go for a while. One thing I can say about that place is the weather there was fantastic. Such a smooth ride around the area. Not a common thing for that place. If you aren't going to catch much you might as well do it in good weather. But if you've been keeping up, we've had a great trip. We're rolling in fat and happy.
It sounds like they're having a tough time keeping good bait in the receivers as of late so we're going to get next to the harbor early morning and try and catch a tank of mackerel for our next trip leaving tomorrow. 4 days. See you then.
