Down here for the week with the wife and kids plus my parents. Staying on the west end bay side. Went to the gulf side this morning and took a walk to the cut, walked out on the rocks and got into the fish pretty quick. Caught 4 Spanish, 3 bluefish, and a bunch of big ladyfish. The biggest Spanish was probably my PB and he was a fighter, made several long drag peeling runs to the point where I thought I might have tied into a small king. Also took my two year old out on the kayak bay side to try it over there but didn’t have any luck.

Looks like you have great help in the front of the boat. I love fishing with my 9 year old son.

Nice!! That’s what I love about saltwater. Inshore or off, there’s (anlmost) always something that’ll eat.

One big fat blue on the popper this morning and caught three Spanish on a spoon, one flopped down in a crack between the rocks and couldn’t be recovered. Also caught lady fish until I was cussing them for biting.

Saw this guy hanging out in the bay near our dock from the living room window and had to pull out the trusty Oneida

That's what I'm talking about. Head shot.

I used to bowhunt with one of those Oneidas and killed a shit ton of deer with it. Draw, find the spot, and schwack!!

Looks like a fun trip Coosa!

Didn’t get to fish this morning due to lightning. But walked down the dock after dinner with my light and got a nice flounder for the grill.

It’s experiences and trips like these that make it harder and harder to turn my truck and boat north and head home. I’m moving to the coast before I get too old. I’m gonna build a pier and then fish for a week (or maybe 3), build another one, then fish or maybe even hunt for at least a week. Continuously getting to do that, would be an awesome retirement.

Talked a couple more Spanish into the filet bag this morning. Should have had four but two flopped off the rocks back into the water before I could get a hold of them.
