I got mine in about 80ft, between the condo and the southern high rise---south of where most were fishing.

I had two baits go to nice sized bonies at dawn---nice little warm up. Then, a pair of dogs took the rest of my baits. There was bait popping here and there, so I put out the sabiki, and started following the schools to stock back up. I started throwing a 3 oz. kroc ('regular' size, just thicker) at a spot where some bait was fluttering by, and a few cranks into the a retrieve, my rod loads up and it was game on....11.5#er hits the deck at 7:35AM....I'll take it!

Another boater hooked up right when I did, and the Dolphin had some going (by the sounds of it) in deeper water.

Thanks for da pic Andy.
