West Atlantis

[wesmac38]

We had a trip friday saturday. The original plan was to go to the dip but decided to head to west atlantis. We stopped 20miles short of the edge for a nice 3 degree break and porpi but couldnt get a knock down. We steamed toward the edge and picked up some longfins and a couple maihi.

The chunk was slow but we got a few maihi and one longfin on a diamond jig.had a blue shark seal the deal for the night.

The second day we picked up more longfins and headed in in total we had 12 longfins and about the same in maihi

Sadly another boat we knew was going to go to west altantis and decide to go to the dip for a day trip the exact opposite of us and he had a nice eyeball 77" in length and 80" girth!!

Yeah, a buddy went to the tails and brought back 2 nice eyeballs, one dressed out at 242.

They also got a 7 pack of lft's. They came in a day early because they had no room left in their coolers. Lifes a bitch. At least for me. I was going to hit the tails/dip.

Woulda, coulda, shoulda. Oh well.

Congrats on the catch. Nothing to cry about certainly.
