Wasn't sure exactly were to post this but hope this will do.
Wednesdays fish story,
Hit the water at about 7:45 am, went to a spot were bait had been spotted. Took a little while to track down some bait after about 30 minutes or soo got onto a good school, unfortunately they were all pretty small but the live well was filling up quick with mainly all shiners/greenbacks(we did have some nice big ones too)
Then put away cast net and headed to some nice holes/ mangroves.
On my first cast I barely had a chance to close my bail when something big just slammed my fish I was caught off guard and tried setting the hook too early fish ended up with a nice snack. So we got nice hits quick. It was just my father and I on the boat, He reeled in a keeper trout quickly in livewell he went, 10 minutes later he landed a keeper mangrove snapper. I reeled a small flouder. Then we drifted the mangroves a little bit catching like three or four small snook. Then i hooked on to a nice Redfish Keeper sweet, in live well he went
Almost 10 minutes later my father hooks onto something big he says, really big wake this fish is pushing had to be big then the head of a small snook pops out for a second and we are both amazed at the wake this underslot snook is pushing then we see a six foot bullshark latched onto the snook, ends up running with the snook taking line FAST, (this all happening a few feet from the boat in about 3 to 4 feet of water) shark ripped fish in half and this is what we were left with.
Then we decided to wade fish
jk
we were going to a new spot on the way saw some huge bait fish caught some then headed on to get some hooks and beer. ate lunch headed out, my father lands a keeper red fish then we go to another spot before heading in and we got a monster just barely legal. The snook never broke the surface once(very Unrealistic of snook) any ways.
When asked "How'd Ya Do" very hard not to smile, a bad day of fishing beats a good day of work anyday!
to be continued....
