Left the dock this morning with a NE breeze and the last of the outgoing tide.....
Got to the first drop, caught a 4 pound fish right away. Conditions were horrible with a 2 knot drift and tangles up the wazoo. After the change of tide it didn't fair much better as the breeze went to the South-Southeast and became fast.
Caught a bunch of shorts and a handful of keepers, pool fish was nice at 6.5 pounds and not in the Monthly pool. It was not what I would even consider good fishing once again!!! Will give it hell tomorrow as always.

Headed out with a nice group of customers today......
First area we found shorts, tried a little deeper and found not much life. No current or drift all day so we had to power drift. Took a ride to a new area and found some nice keepers but the lack of drift hurt us once again.
Mustacio Rich is on a roll with his 3rd pool in a row in the ninth inning, todays fish went 5 pounds 3 ounces and is the new Monthly pool leader. Couple 3-4 pound fish in the mix also. A load of Big Sea Bass that had to go back!!! Bunch of crap that is.
Water temp was up to 61 today, found some bait so i'm expecting the bite to get better. Back at it in the AM.

Much better with the keepers today but it was a grind to say the least!
Gail Bernard who ran my galley in the 80's and has been a friend for 40 years celebrated her 60th birthday with me today. She was well rewarded with 3 nice keepers and a bunch of smaller fish.
First time Fluke fisher-woman Debbie from PA also had her three by days end and took the pool with a 6 pound beauty. Couple nice fish around the boat but like I said it wasn't easy. Back at it in the AM.

Tried several new area's today where we found warmer water....
Sadly the Fluke didn't get the memo, never found a steady bite any place we fished.
Picked a few nice keepers with a couple guys landing two, some with one and a whole bunch of donuts!
Dave B, and Mustachio Richie had 2 nice fish with Richie taking the pool with a 4 pound 5 ounce fish. Back at it in the AM to give it hell once again.

Very nice group of customers today but I was a little leary with the wind report....
Headed to where we've been fishing hoping the wind would hold off. We slugged away pretty good at short Fluke the first couple of drifts, one nice fish got away before the net could reach him.
Started getting cranky as the current changed and wind came on so we left the area.
Ended up in the Sahara for the afternoon but that's where we caught the handful of keepers and pool fish that we ended the day with.
Chico landed a nice 4 1/2 pound fish that earned him the money today. Finally going to get away from all the South wind tomorrow! Bite should improve as well as the conditions. See you in the AM.
