Launched with Nate, Austin Ken and Tim at about 6:45 and we made our way out to the Artificial Reefs. Fishing was OK for me for a while, but was getting mostly small bass.
Nate and Austin had to head back in to the shop early. Tim (I hope I have your name right, if I don't, I apologize) headed in too after a bit which left me and Ken. We caught plenty of smallish bass on the first spot, so we decided to move to some of the shallower reefs where I could drop a marker buoy for reference. Strong North current today. Ken found the calico hole and caught many of this size and I caught a few more calicos too.
I was also finding some grumpies and landed this guy at about 10:30.
Ken and I fished for another half hour or so, hooking up on nearly every drift over the spot and decided to leave them biting. Nice day. The sun never showed, the current never eased, the swells never diminished. But at least the wind wasn't blowing hard and the water was fairly smooth for us. I had a great time. Thanks everybody. I'm so lucky to be able to do this. I fished the drop shot, swim baits and Jetty Worms. All worked. The biggun was caught on a white head Trix Jetty Worm with a large Kalin grub and some stink. Yes, I'm wearing socks!
