Not much happening, we’re still off course by about 20 degrees and winds not playing nice.
The fishing lines were not out and I suggested that we put only two lines out and put them up on the line hook things, as we would then have a visual indication when we get a bite, as they would pop off them. Steve went one further and put a mental nut on each so we would also have an audible warning.
After a few false alarms and the massive lure out about 20-25 feet, still no fish, but we have all the lures back on board safely.
We went “wing on wing” today for a few hours, just to see how the boat handles. Very smooth as we are going nearly totally down wind and with the swells. No longer in a mechanical bull rating scale for ride, it is now like a very lame little children’s fairground ride or the ones you get outside supermarkets, you know like the Postman Pat ones.
We are now back to the normal setup for the evening, but will go back to “wing on wing” in the morning.
