?Į?? "So far this morning things look promising, with our first fish a 199-pounder caught by Sonny Jones.?? We all were happy to see we had something to work with. Since then we have another seven fish; a 170-pounder being the biggest, and the others 100 pounds or better. We seem to keep something hooked here, and are hoping for a good day. At this point it's just nice to be anchored with fish around the boat."
