April 6th 2007
The wind howled all morning and finally started to slow some when Mike called and asked if I had the afternoon available for fishing. I told him I had canceled both of my trips for the day but the wind did look like it was calming some…lol. Mike said let’s go!
We went to the pass and started trolling speck rigs for Spanish. We had several hours of fishing and no strikes. The wind switched from the north to the northwest. It pick up to about 20 mph. We changed tactics and started trolling S25’s. On our first pass Mike is hooked up with what we hope is a BIG redfish.
Five minutes later I am netting a stud gag grouper at 11lbs.
Our next pass resulted in Russell bowed up with our second grouper.
We make three more passes and break off two more grouper.
Then the Spanish bite picks up and Mike is hooked up with a nice fish.
Now Jerald is the only angler without a fish but that ends pretty quickly once the Spanish bite started.
Not a big afternoon bite but we certainly did not get skunked!
Until our next fishing adventure…tight lines!
God Bless
