     Finally! Gage, Alec and I got one at the Football today. 104 pounds gutted. We saw the usual bird and tuna show but no whales there (they were all off of Bodega Head in 40 fathoms). In the holes in the fog we saw several other boats with fish hooked up. In some of the thick fog we saw the boat Blue Money run over and break off one of out MadMacs, Normally I wouldn't name names, but the Blue Money ran over our lines on July 5, too. Twice gets you outed. TWICE! Apparently not saying anything supports bad behavior. Anyways, we finally caught one after sliding our lines back further. Go figure, two days of no bites with our lines at 40 and 60 seconds out, then less than an hour after going to 50 and 75 seconds me hook up on the long line. 
    I'm trying to talk Gage into going to 90 seconds for the long line. Maybe 100?

Twice. No offer of compensation. Not even so much as an apology? This guy is getting off easy with only being outed, at the very least he deserves to have the boat's picture posted.

The name is huge on the side of the boat. Or it was.

I have a picture from the first time he destroyed our gear should one be needed! But I have to admit it wasn't all bad when he ran over our lines, we were deep in that zone where you just can't pull your lines and go home, but once we didn't have any lines anymore it was easy to just go home, ha. But then again they weren't my lines, so it hurt less.
