I can tell you from experience that the first time you're there, you'll be wanting to go to the 20 mile rigs after the first 5 minutes you go without a bite.

That's not very far at all, but remember that in open water that's still a 30 minute boat ride unless it's like glass. The weather can get shitty in 30 minutes. We had a jackup boat flip 5 miles out a few years ago in a pop up storm that got downright nasty in a hurry. You do not want to be in THAT shite in a bay boat.

Just be smart and be willing to bail and you'll be fine. Being willing to bail is the hardest part out of this.
