Dave Duffy’s Deep Water Adventure Capt. Carl reports a great trip on Dave Duffy’s Deep Water Adventure on the Viking Star! Day one started off very good with very steady action in the deep, catching quality golden tiles, giant “seddleback” pollack, sow hake and elusive cusk. We had a lot of fun filling up the coolers for hours! Eventually we started to do some exploring, looking for bigger tiles, and we found some, as well as more hake and cusk.

As the day went on, the conditions got better and…
