Your boat is definitely made for that extra run out....and the 2 extra ft. of your boat have to be a big help too. My boat is only 22 ft and definitely made more for inshore fishing so I didn't want to venture too far out. I would have been excited with a limit of 16 in snapper. I just wish we could have landed a couple of those ling.
