Had the pleasure of having James, Mick, and John join me for a combo trip. The good water moved off and once we got to the Stream we were greeted with less than desirable temps and water color. Looked around a bit and decided to go to plan "B" , jigging. The jig bite was good with large false albacores, amberjacks, and almacos keeping the guys busy. They were getting tired of wrestling with reef donkeys so we made a small move and dropped anchor on some marks that looked like triggers on the sonar. Triggers they were and they were coming up 2 at a time. The guys caught on quick with the quick biting triggers and after a short while the brine tank was stuffed with large tasty triggers. Wanting to try for something a bit shallower to give the crews weary arms a break, we went shallower looking for b-liners. All we found were seabass. It was another fast paced trip with a great group of guys. Back at the cleaning table, the guys took all the trigger fillets they could handle, and left the rest for the Captain.....Life is good indeed.
