Thanks for the comments, we had a great time in Ocean City. I'm looking forward to getting back out there, love that blue water.

Texas,

When we troll out there were pretty much targetting Tuna but anything can hit when your in the Ocean. Most of the fish were caught on rigged Ballyhoo, with a blue and white Islander, skirt. I usually troll 3 - 4 in the spread of 7 - 8 rods...Trolling speeds range from 6.5mph to 7.5mph depending on sea conditions and how the lures are moving through the water. I like them to run slightly beneath the surface and then rise and break the surface causing a slight disturbance or splash.

We also drag pink Squid teasers on the port and starboard corners 10' off the stern. I believe his helps raise fish since one came up and bite the last Squid in half.

Scott,

LOL, I know what you mean about a bloody deck, immediately after the fish are placed in the fishbag its rinsed off with the saltwater washdown hose. It makes quick work of the mess and is a great option...I'm pretty anal too about my boat.
