The wind was blowing 40 miles per hour and we lost 8 rigs at $40 a piece. I did get upset because of the loss of gear and perhaps customers not listening to instructions. We caught almost 30 fish and all the overs allowed including a 13 pounder by James. I did apologize to everyone on board. Perhaps the losing of $600 worth of equipment on a $540 trip had something to do with it. But they were very inexperienced and with the wind blowing so hard we should have stayed home.
