The bro and I decided to take advantage of the nice weather and hit LB again and do some hooping. We launched from South Shore about 1600 and headed out to some fishing. Fishing was slow, very slow, not even a bite. We headed over to the spot we wanted to start at and set up our gear. First string of 7 nets were in the water at 1815. We pulled them at 1915 and got 8 legals in the first string. After that we would get a couple here and there. We had to pick up our crew member Chase at 2300 after he got out of school so we took about a 45 min break. We had 12 when we picked him up and headed back out. The crawl seemed to die down even more after 2300 and we were pulling up mostly empty nets, with maybe one legal in a string. We pulled our last string at 0345 with one more nice lagal for a total of 17 legals, all well over the legal size limit. Pretty darn close to limits for three.

Here are some pics.

Chase texting one of his many Girly Friends good bye? (Not like were leaving Dutch Harbor)
