05/20/2011 Offshore Fishing Report

We decided to take part in the 13th Annual Simmons and White Fishing Tournament once again and cleaned up on Kingfish! We ended up with a 28lb Kingfish caught by Reelsgood and won the whole tournament! We tried to catch bait near the inlet but only got a handful so we tried the pier with no luck and then it was time to fish. The ocean was calm for the most part with a couple of gusts that created a bit of a chop but overall was a great day on the water. The Kings were biting in 100' pretty much on first drop. We used dead sardines, live greenies, and dead ballyhoo and all three had success. Once we had the monster king we tried for Dolphin but could not find them! Great tournament as always and was a great day on the water.
