Nice Roger! I’ve never fished in the ocean. Gonna have to come visit ya one of these days!
birthday dude, HBD first
Second, If you ever do get a chance to get outside with Roger, realize there are things down there that can eat you, and if you're out a little ways, you ain't touchin' bottom even with a 300' anchor line! (or 10K feet in some places).
I miss the ocean, it's a wonderful experience.

King Salmon run out of Monterey Bay when the whales are migrating back from calving.. Great Whites and Orcas. Boat never seems big enough.

Roger, what is the technique for catching snapper? Bottom jigging like for Rock Fish on the Oregon Coast?
One of these days I am going out to Oregon just for bigger Ling Cod. I caught a little one a couple years ago and got a jonesing for a big one.
you can jig but we use squid mostly.

didn' run the 70 miles to ranzell, instead of being 3ft in the morning and dropping to 2ft it was 5-6 ft and sloppy. took a little over 2 hours to run to our snapper numbers 27 miles SE.

Thanks! And I have fished with Roger before except on a lake. He’s one heck of a fisherman!

Sounds like a smart call. That kind of distance and seas can make for a long, ass kicker of a day. Knowing when to hold’em and when to fold’em is why reckless guys like us get to live to fish another day. 👍
It’ll be that much sweeter when you do get the window to run 70+ miles......the big fish gods will smile upon you for your restraint.

we stopped at a rig on the way back in and had a 80-100 lb pound cobia come up to the boat but we couldn't get it to hit anything we threw at it.

Smaller ling eat better.
Big ones tend to be girls, anyway. Anything over 28”, 30” tops goes back.

we didn't have squid today didn't plan on snapper fishing today so used some blue runners/hardtails for cut bait.

Only bait that we have ever got a Cobia (Ling) to eat on a consistent bases is live eels. Can be stubborn son of a guns at time. Nice haul STX
I've had good luck with a peeled jumbo shrimp burying the hook in it on a fluorocarbon leader.
