At about 4:00 I started catching mackerel. I was catching a bunch of tiny pollock but then figured out that I was too deep. I ended up with 6 good sizes ones. After this wave of fish we moved a bit. We caught a bunch more of the little polock then someone landed a cod. I think it was a keeper (over 24″). I slapped a Hopkins jig on my surf rod and sank it to the bottom. I snagged a few polock but just as we were getting ready to leave, wham… Something hit the jig but I was too slow to hook it. Was it seaweed or a 30lb cod. In my mind it was a 30 pounder.
