Capt Dicks Stream trip 5-12-11 (Murrels Inlet, SC)
Myself and my buddy ended up the only drift fishermen on the boat so we had plenty of place for that. We fished dead cigar minnows one particular 75′-100′ the other a tiny even more back again. Managed to restrict out on kings. Had a double hookup the moment, landed both fish. Caught the previous four fish within ten minutes. All pretty good sized, smallest was thirteen#. They ran 13#, sixteen#, 17#, 17#, 24# and 29#. Even managed to hook yet another at 21# and handed the rod to someone else so they could appreciate the fight and fish. Only missed a single run all day, of program it appeared to be the biggest fish, burned an straightforward 200yards of line, applied a little drag and pulled loose. Didn’t miss a single fish at the boat, mates did a fantastic task. I assume the Captain gaffed all of our fish, each and every gaff was textbook. Impressed to say the minimum.
Bottom fishing seemed to be exceptional and some of the best I’ve witnessed in really some time. Limited out on just about almost everything, two grouper in the bag, the two fairly great dimensions. Found some significantly more substantial grouper appear over the rail, believe the largest was 17#. Observed some of the most significant BSB Ive at any time observed in my existence arrive over one particular way, then correct again into the drinking water.
I apologize about the deficiency of photos (unless you men wanna see the steaks and fillets), by the time we received in, I was completed, cooked, somebody forgot sunscreen. Went to GCP to clear and weigh the fish. That was a whooooole other story. The hook for their scale only had 24" or so of place before the fish on the scale’s tail was laying in a flowerbed. That whole ordeal price us two several hours.

Q’s for Capt. Fred Archer
I landed a seven.5kg wahoo a couple of weeks back again on my braid outfit (softer rod, 80lb spectra, Okuma reel), and lost the one the other day on my mono outfit (80lb yellow mono, stiffer rod, large aged star drag reel) so was asking yourself aside from the drag getting too loose if u reckon the stretch in the mono had one thing to do with the fish not getting hooked up excellent, vs the hookup on the braid was nice, corner of the mouth..even though abit lucky as i had a 80lb mono leader…no snips though…
Should i run the mono outfit on a tighter drag, so as to avoid the stretch in the mono effecting the hook up?
I did put a 30m dacron hammer on the mono outfit the other day, so I hope that will get care of the missed-hookup situation. I put the reel on a thirty-50lb rated rod too that was abit softer than the 37kg stiff rod it was on.
Also I set a 80lb mono topshot on the braid outfit…need to i consider it off to get much better hooksets?
I have rigged a few a lot more of my lures on wire now (stainless, multistand) as that’s all i have the following at the moment and will operate on acquiring some singlestrand on it is way here. Have u ever utilised copper wire from electircal cable…and does it function…not positive if copper wire is worth a go or not Considering that u say u’ve discovered it makes no difference, I’ll give it a lot more of a go.
How do you keep your lures and 3 foot of singlestand…do you coil it or lay it flat someplace…you talked about your cockpit in ur e-book…but was not confident how that worked
You stated you give your plugs and divers black bellies to make them far more visible with an airbrush…is a black marker ok or how do you do it w/o an airbrush? A spray can could get sloppy… 🙂 do you make the massive eyes on the lures with the airbrush as well?
When searching for wahoo, Nauru is a 8sq mile island in which the reef primaily drops off into deep drinking water, with only 2 areas exactly where the reef tapers off little by little. Are these two regions a lot more most likely to hold fish in comparison to the drop off locations? How far need to I be trolling off the drop off areas if i am right after wahoo, appropriate on the drop off or how far outdoors it?
Do Wahoo migrate? and are they probably to be around a a specific time of year right here more than one more time?
When u say fish the total moon, do you imply at night time or just the day of the complete moon? I have not tried evening trolling, may be abit risky here.
Is matching dimension or color of what they are eating a lot more essential? At instances they are eating quite small whitish hunting bait two-4cm lengthy which is more challenging to match with a decent hook…any concepts?
Effectively thanks once again for composing about all your encounter in ur book, i relaly loved it and am nonetheless hoping to utilize it all.

finally a cobia
Ultimately received a single these days. My dad and I went out this morning in lookup for bait balls and we found our first one just off the beach. We pull up and begin viewing the cobia. Had about an 80 pounder in there but he was not taking to the jig or dead bait. Threw 1 far more time when i found them and bam hooked up. Noticed loads a lot more balls but practically nothing in them.

Best Knot for for flouro to braid connection – Red Philips Knot – Video
While I had the video digital camera out I desired to share 1 of my favourite knots…
The Red Philips Knot…
It’s utilised to connect braided mainline to fluorocarbon or mono leaders.
http://www.youtube.com/view?v=YSCmLbKkHOk
There has been a lot of discussion the following more than the years about this sort of connection.
I agree that the "Chinese Handcuff" form connection employed for wind-ons is most likely the smoothest and strongest connection – if you use hollow core braid.
But – for a modest, super strong and quickly tying connection for sound braid the Red Philips cannot be beaten…
The uni to unit results in a more substantial knot on the fluor/mono facet of the knot than the Red Philips.
also there is only one particular strand of fluoro or mono underneath the braid’s uni knot as compared with the Red Philips which has two…
Not employing the fluoro or mono uni knot saves time in addition its tough to tie uni knots in 70# and up mono or fluoro line – the above hand knot is speedy and straightforward…
Obtaining both strands of the fluoro or mono beneath the braid side of the knot implies the braid has to reduce thru equally strand of fluoro/mono on either aspect of the overhand knot for it to fall short…
Thanks
