Had a group of guys in town from the Lumber ton area. Wanted to go deep jigging but the weather wouldn’t cooperate so we did a live bait/jigging trip. Started around 20 miles and had a few nice AJs but between the dive boats and other anglers they stopped eating. Headed out further off shore and found some better fish. Caught a couple jigging and live bbait. Then one of the jigging rods started screaming and we had a 20 lb African. Decided to finish out the afternoon bottom fishing and had a nice keeper Gag and Scamp and a couple of short reds. Also plenty of grunts etc. The weather held out for most of the day and had plenty of action.
