I did not recognize Mr. Quad,, due to sporting the "hippy" hair.....LOL! Good trip, with calm seas? Any bottom fish, assuming that was open?

The other rods had a Luhr Jensen chrome/hammered spoon. forget the exact name. Larger spoon than you see in local OE, etc. store.
Ya, I can't recommend doing a bottom fishing charter enough if anyone hasn't. Go with a guide that you have a recommendation from friends, on. Some have a better disposition than others. This guy would truely get WORKED UP/EXCITED when the big lings came along the boat.
