Econfina 07/07/07

Post by PinFishKing »

OK, a little late, but here it is. Econfina report for 07/07/07.

We went out fairly early Saturday. Left the dock at 8:45 :evil: . Stopped to catch a few pinfish for later. The crew jumped in to play with the scallops while the PinFishKing caught a few pinfish. About 30 pinfish later, the crew reboarded with about 3 gallons of scallops.

Headed South. This looks good. Anybody want a good spot? :lick: :

Trolled, no bites, dropped live Pinfish.... Nothing. Crew suited up and went down to check it out. Here's Frank with a score:

Headed back North hitting spots as we go. Here's Paul, first time out with Team Grouper:

Here's Gregory (PinFishKing JR). Lost the picture but he speared his first fish this weekend, a nice Hog Snapper. Here he is with a couple of other casualties:

Here's Ben (Frank Jr) trolling/scalloping. He still can't figure out where the big blister between his toes came from:

Limited out on scallops in 6.5 to 9 foot. Caught the most around the edges of big sandy spots where it meets the grass.

Tally:

6 nice gags.
1 huge red.
5 triggers (big ones).
6 Mangrove Snappers (Friday Night's Supper).
10 gallons of scallops.

We had a good time as always. It was HOT. We introduced someone new (Paul) to the Big Bend fishing/spearing experience.
You just can't fix stupid.
