Tried deep drop for Yelloweyes first. Tough conditions. Weather man got it wrong with the 5-10 forecast. Stormy and 10-15 all morning increasing to 15 by noon. Hit half a dozen numbers at least but found them on only one. Got 38 Yelloweye, almost a four-man limit. Released three Red Snapper with the release tool and one Snowy. Fished under rain most of the day. Trolled south in 500' and after 10 minutes got a double of Dorado with the larger one close to 15#. Plenty of good eats. Got this tiny grouper in close to 400' which I can't identify. At first I thought it might be a coney but it's not a Coney or Golden Coney. Any idea what it is? We sent this one down too with the release tool but being so small don't know if it made it.
