Launched my 12foot boat with electric motor at the Seward park boat launce at 6:00am headed out south using pop gear with nitecrawler. Wasn't any other boats out yet. Enjoying the peace an quiet trolling along at 3rd speed. No action until around 7:30 when the silence was broken from the sound of my reel spinning out of control. after setting the hook I realized there was a large angry fish fighting to break free, not allowing that to happen I was able to land an 18in 4lb cutthroat. Continued to fish until the wind came up forcing me to head in to shore. [need to get gas outboard]
