With the anticipation of a Nasty day and an almost guaranteed bite, the customers came out today, despite the forecast of rain and wind. From past post's, today should have been a banner day, only one problem, when the tide started to run out, it got NASTY!

Anchored up and had fish on right away, lines were already running to the bow with the outgoing and East wind. Myself and the crew kept tossing the customers out and working their lines knowing the end was near! We boated a bunch of keepers and way to many 27 inch fish in the first hour. After that it was PUKE and move!

Made several drops on great readings only to move and find the fish laying in front of the boat! Worst conditions I have seen in a long time. Between the rain, wind and swinging of the boat, it was almost impossible to put a great catch together. Still had some nice keepers and good action while it lasted..Tommy Krakow finally got rid of the skunk and landed 2 nice keepers, just missing the pool and feeling reborn again!!

Chartered this weekend Saturday and Sunday morning. Afternoons with Capt. Frank at 3:PM are available.....Capt. Ron
