Had a full day live bait trip for kings today. Started catching bait in the dark since no pogies are around Wrightsville have to catch Blues and Pins. Picked up the guys around 7:30 and started heading off shore. As usual the light 10 mph west winds were 10 to15. Started around 10 miles and before I got the 2ND line in the water the 1st line went off. 14 lb king. Continued to work the area with good success we had a double on and had more strikes that shredded the Blue but missed the hooks. We watched the fish slash the bait several times and then left. Then around 11:00 the wind pick up and the sharks moved in. After several double headers of sharks we moved to another spot. The winds let up a little but the fish did not eat. Shortly after lunch the crew was not feeling well and decided to call it a day. We had plenty of fish for all to eat. Sorry I forgot the camera so no pictures.
