Had Mike and his two sons Vinny and Mike from NJ out yesterday. I wasn't veru optimistic given the wind and freezing cold temps. The water at 8:30 was 62 and only hit 67 at the warmest part of the day.
The FIRST cast of the day little mike hit's a 32" - 8 pound snook. Red jig head, rootbeer tail. What a great fight!
There was no watr so hit the upper passes to wait for the rise out front, we caught a ton of snappers and jacks and a few trout and plenty of kitty's.
When the water was 3/4 up out front I hit some points without much luck. We got a sheepshead, trout, jacks, snappers and a PUFFER.
I headed into the back and fished some points and hit paydirt. As Charlie Wright was waking me with the Kayak Mothership Mike the father was on his second Redfish. We caught 4 on that point.
Then all hell broke loose and Vinny nailed this enormous over the slot Girl that ran and fought like a champ!
Dad finished up the day with a large over the slot Red and we were rolling back to the dock around 4pm, all tired with big smiles on our faces!.
Final Tally:
3 broken Freight Trains
3 upper or over slot Snook
7 Snooklets
7 Reds - 1 overslot
Trout
Jacks
Ladies
Snaps and Kitties
