My brother and I took a couple of our out of town friends who were eager to get on the water and try their hand at fishing to Van Damme. Once on the water we headed around the point and went north. We tied on some “Branson Bait Sea Slugs”  for the newbies to use.  The Sea Slugs enticed some quality fish to take their baits with the biggest being a 33” ling and a 23.75” vermillion.

Those are great quality fish!

And who doesn’t appreciate a report from the future! I know where I’m going to be on 9/2…
