News First fish on the Paddy Hopper II...

Buy another boat: $$$

Fix it up: $$$ and a ridiculous number of hours and headaches for a year and a half

First fish on my first day out fishing this boat - a 63# White Sea Bass, caught and landed solo (everyone else had to work, or was hung over from Cinco deMayo): PRICELESS

Work's been slow so I took the day off and I am glad I did! Looks like the fishing gods took pity on this fisherman for paying his dues... Booyaa!

Now for the fish report (since it is a reports board): Caught this local 8:30 AM about 55' deep on a dine, 2/0 on dropper loop with 20 floro leader.

Tight lines.
