4th June – As of midnight I was at position
13:56.19S 145:47.76W Fizzy Bubbler got hit for the worst. My newly purchased Lure
which again works well as it lured me in got hit by something pretty big. To
bad it did not hook up as I have been trolling 2 lures lately one on the real
and the other is on VB Cord, about 5 mm thick and then a 8 meter trace of 300
Pound 49 stainless steel strand wire which could happily double are rigging
wire it is so strong. I mean business. Anyhow my new lure that I names fizzy bubbler was ripped
apart and in need of some repair work. Day 315 Destination – Traveling Direction – South West Average Speed – 5.1 Total distance – 123 Nautical Miles Travel Time – 24h |
