Rich and I met up at 6am at the ramp in Mission Bay. Grabbed a 1/2 scoop of quality deens and made our way out to the PB pier to look for some macs. Macs were tough to come by today so we moved over to the kelp and pick away at the less desirable Spanish macs. We made 8 or 10 pieces to go with our half scoop then pointed the bow for the "9".
The top of the 9 is still looking good with birds and whales everywhere. Shortly after crossing the 9 we spot a paddy and the game is on. Rich draws first blood with a nice female Dorado. A few break offs, a few swing and a miss and I finally get one in the boat. Rich and I farm a few more then I get picked up buy a nice bull. After a couple good runs and 6 or 8 jumps we convince this one to get in the box. We farm a few more before heading on our way to the 182.
Lots of talk from the guys out that way about more Dorado and some big yellow under most of the kelps. We stop on 3 or 4 more kelp on the way out for a few more bumps but no more fish.
Made it a short day so I could be home by 3 to take care of some family stuff.
