Stroke of Luck III went into slip C36 last Sunday at Marina Shores after getting Aqua Traction flooring installed. My point is that if anyone is considering it you are welcome to check it out. Looks like the weather is taking another turn for the worse this weekend and I have been really itching to get out after seeing all the great hauls you are all bringing in!  Left the dock about 3:00 and got a tip from the SeaQuest Lure team that US Steel was were the action was so headed that way.  SW wind was really humming but while the water was fine the "dust" blowing off the mill was more than my buddy and I could take and pointed in back to the ditch.  Picked a couple on the way back and hit bait around the #4 in 45' and the evening improved with a nice Spring King at 17.38lbs hitting a Magnum Stinger Green Dolphin down 35'. End up with 7 coho as well so we will call that a win for the shakedown. Riggers took everything with dodger and black fly with chatruese spin 'n glow down 21' getting most of the coho. Sort of interesting on the bait as it moved in and out was of the area and not packed tight. Given the action we were getting there I'm thinking the fish were chasing them pretty hard scattering them around the general area.

Just to clarify on my statement of "My point is that if anyone is considering it you are welcome to check it out" was in regards to Aqua Traction flooring in case someone is thinking about it. Another popular brand is SeaDeck which has more name recognition being in the market longer.
