I booked a condo for next weekend yesterday. Me and a buddy will be heading down early the morning of the 6th.
We will launch out of Safe Marina both days. Weather and wind forescasts look awesome so far- let's hope the forecasts hold up.
We're not going to venture too far out- this being the first Cortez trip for my boat- so we will probably start off of Pelican Point and maybe make our way out to the 16-210 and maybe the 15 mile reef. I figure if we can pick up a few flounder/halibut. and maybe a few 5-10 pound pintos or Leopards then it will be a good trip. If things go good Saturday then maybe we will venture farther out on Sunday.
Tackle-Wise- I'm packing sabiki's, short shank bait hooks size 1/0 to 10/0, various drop sinkers up to 16 ounces, some jigging iron (tady's and diamonds with the trebles replaced with thick shank 10/0 singles) and a bunch of scampi's and swimbaits in green and root beer (1 and 2 ounce heads). Anything else you guys would recommend in the tacke department?
Hope to get to meet some of you RP gurus out there!
