Thanks everyone for the replies. I'm only using 10# balls which may be part of the problem.

Downriggin--I'm doing good. How are you? Glad to hear you are having success up here (was sick last weekend so couldn't make it out to Elliot Bay). Too bad you'll be away till July. The only good part is there will be a few extra fish around for the rest of us to catch (jk). fishy

I hope to get out one or both days this weekend and will post how I do.
