Star gazing 12/7/16

That's about all we did for 4 hours last night without so much as a twitch from either rod 
No surf, no current, not one strand of salad, and no freaking fish!
Hopefully tonight will be better!
As far as the stars go, what is the giant orange/yellow star/planet to the southwest that moved north? Super bright!  I thought it was a plane heading straight at us for the longest time.

Sounds like a bad luck star with how your night went  When you see it up in the sky, go back home.

Hey Chad, I saw the same thing on Tuesday and even asked Steve if it was a plane or a planet.  I thought it was Venus and confirmed it when I opened up Google Sky and there it was, clear as day.  Venus.

I'm looking forward to your other post this morning.

I think your right Mike!  I didn't see it last night and my luck was much better!

Venus!? How cool! I didn't know it was that visible.
I'll get last nights report up on a bit.
