Donkey Kong Fishing

By Weedline Member

ATLAS - I'll let Old Yeller give the fishing details...but never before have I been able to run my boat 35+ knts coming back in until yesterday.  We ran to the atlas by way of the slot.  Needless to say the slot was SLOPPY!!!  Maybe 9 or 10 at best..that was a loooong mile. Then it was still kinda choppy going to the atlas but at lunch time...wow, did it ever lay down.  We headed back in around 2:00 or so and trolled back to the 1700.  Then ran to the slot doing about 27.  Got out of the slot and hit her WAO....40 all the way back in....just a gorgeous day running the water.

And the fishing...nothing for the freezer but PLENTY of reef donkey action...17 from 18 to 34 #

Old Yeller, thanks for all your help and tips...looking forward to the next time!
