I-Bay 7/10

[BreakingBass]

Took a short trip this morning just NE of I-Bay from 120 to 250 fow.  The waves were barely tolerable on the northern troll out and not tolerable on the return trip south, back to the bay.  Managed one small Atlantic 70' over 220' on a Dreamweaver magnum monkeypuke spoon.  Had knockoff around 200' on the same spoon.  Was surprised anything hit today, and the fish I did catch was hooked in the gill, most likely from the bouncing of the lure.  The 3' waves and westerly wind made a 4.5 lb fish feel like 15 lbs when reeling it in.  Happy when I got back to the dock.
