Hi, I'm new to the board but thought I'd add my 2 cents. Grandpa and I went out last sunday for a few hours to Hat Island in 8-2 and fished deep on the riggers between 90 and 240ft., managed to hook 2 and only landed one small BM just below min. size and then the second one was in the high teens at least and possibly bigger but after 10-15 min into the fight and almost to the net a big bull sea lion grabbed my prize and the fight was on,but after a tug of war for the fish, I decided I'd rather be fishing again, oh well!Damn lions!!!
