Launched at first light this morning to calm winds and pretty big long period swell. A shit load of garbage floating around the marina from last week's storm so I headed offshore to the AR.

Hooked up on the first drop and the bite continued for about an hour or so. Lots of bait out there.
Ended up with 7 Calicos - released . 2 of them were fat 20 inchers. All fish caught on 3/4 oz. underspin in redneck shad. Swell started building so I called it a day. Back to the launch by 10.

I'm typically out on the water right at safelight, but almost never can get myself back in before 3ish.

I do that whole "ok, last cast" dance for about an hour and a half before finally giving into reality. LOL

Thanks guys.
Glad I decided to take advantage of that break in the wind and swell and the fish cooperated.
It's a lot different out there today.
