We had the new ride out this morning to see how she rode and to get her christened with blood, scales, and other nasty stuff. Capt. Alex joined me on the maiden voyage.

While it wasn't a slaughter, we did nail a bunch of flatties fishing in the fleet N of the BI before heading off to DCC to look for other critters. Only one serious knockdown over there (which I missed undoubtedly due to winter rust). We also had a couple of serious boils alongside the boat, so things seem ripe to truly explode on the bay scene over the next day or so.

Catch 'em up.
