Rats, a Blurry Picture

This crew had a fun half day on the Lady Catherine even if we did have to hide from the wind on the bay side.  Those are Mutton Snapper they are holding.   The bay side banks and the bridge hard to figure out sometimes.  Still, you almost always catch fish.  Today instead of Hogfish and Porgies it was legal Muttons and respectable Mangrove Snapper.  they also played with a number of sharks and a large Jack Crevalle.   Jack Crevalle aren't much on the table but since the ladies had never tangled with one they had a bit of fun.

Now I get a couple of days off to rest my bones then hopefully we will get a few fair weather trips for a change.

The Fish Won, but We Got a Few

 (305) 304-8656

The fish kind of won today.  We picked up a few nice fish, a Mutton, some porgies and a few Mangroves but.....

 There were some other hungry critters that took more than their fair share.  So we lost a lot of very nice fish to the bottom and sharks.

Since this was a family fun day, we changed crews and tried the bridge and the rock piles so we could stay close to Burdines to drop off and pick up.  One of the test spinning outfits met more than its match today and a rod broke.  Bummer, I like the light weight graphite rod but as is common, they tend to be a bit delicate for my kind of fishing.

Tomorrow, there is a serious grudge match brewing with some of the critters that got away and got away with dinner.  Conditions btw are pretty nice, it is a bit sloppy out front but not bad once you are at anchor, provided you don't get a sloppy one over the bow.
