Fishing Report Deep Jigging 4-4-2009 Day 1

Had a great group of guys come down from NY for their 1st experience in NC for deep water jigging. Jon, Gary, Chris and Peter are now hooked. Sat the weatherman was not very close as usual and it was rougher than expected but we toughed it out and stopped in 140 feet. The 1st fish was a nice Red grouper. Then we started hammering the medium to large AJs. Everyone had a blast and could not believe the fishery. The wind let up in the middle of the day so we moved out to 200 feet and had more AJs, 2 African Pompano a 300 plus lb shark in the jig. The bite slowed a little in the afternoon but everyone needed a break so we looked for a few grouper and then called it day so the guys could prepare for day 2.
