Genny-Russell 8-30-08

[LongLine]

Launched before dawn at the Genny. Fog along shore early but burned off around 9:30. Initially worked 40-70FOW out front. Bait was there. Temp definitely warmer as you went out. Very cold shallow.

Wondering if these things are blankets of goby’s??? Only saw a few pods up in the water column. Quite a few boats around the mouth early, then they went out.

Moved down to Russell in 70 FOW then worked towards shore. Birds in 35 FOW again. (Divers & gulls)

I buzzed them for a better shot cuz they obviously didn’t know where the fish were either.

Did manage a tiny rainbow in 30 FOW, 10 down, NK clean frog. (Looked like somebody had snagged him)

Worked back to River, zig-zagging 30-55FOW, then pulled out around 11:00.

Apparently they teach this in sailing school. This guy must’a got an “Aâ€

He was just moving in nice and close for a game of flare toss. Notice the big 'net' he has put up on that tall pole.
