Thanks.

Oh - and let us know what you are using to catch the triggers and at what depth. Good to hear they are still there. My buddy is going to try to shoot some in the morning. I have to work!
Keyport is loaded with peanuts at high tide. Cast net them from my dock. I bumped the hook up to a number 1 red Gami Octo hook. When alive I hook across thru the nostrils....if fresh dead I will hook like a killie but hook deep to the bend of the hook so the mouth stays closed. Was just kidding on the triggers...been staying with the fluke while the bite is on.
