Your Fishing Report: If this is a tournament report do not state the fish’s length in this box. State the length and species in the box below NOAA said it would be 5-10 increasing to 10-15 in the afternoon.  They were half right:  It was blowing a steady 10+ when we left the dock around 11:00 to see how active the fish would be with water temps at 85+.

Frank Bellizio and I made several drops at a few different haunts and did okay, count wise, but nothing special.  We’d drift for a bit then try a new spot if we didn’t get much activity.

Enroute to our last stop for the day the winds were a steady 15+ with whitecaps all around.  And it was hot!  If it wasn’t for the wind it would have been HOTZ (the Z makes it sizzle).  So the breeze did keep us cool.

The whole point of fishing with friends is to have fun, laugh and enjoy the day on the water.  At the last stop we started with simultaneous hookups (with catfish) which produced some laughs (and groans).

Aside from catching some trout and a few undesirables, we also caught a few pinfish.  The pictures show our catches (not what we were using for bait.  (More laughter here)

So we had another fun day on the water trying to outfox the foxes.
