Mashes Sands 12-19-08
Got to the ramp right at daylight and could barely see the dock waited till about 8 ta give it a try "enjoyed talking with Hammer and his fishin partner" Once I got out and away from land the fog was much better and I laid the hammer down to my starting spot
Trolled a 10 mile circle hitting 15 numbers in it, nothin till the last # "my number one spot" I picked up this feller on it "35 1/2 inches"
Trolled around there just a bit, with no more luck, then headed to the Barge to try it. Lots of boats out there and nothing biting, so I then headed to the Rotary Reef. Trolled it for about three hours, picking up several shorts and getting broke off "my fault" again "thumbing the drag" then headed in with the wind and the chop picking up "it was the wife's B'day and I had things ta get ready". Here is the two fatties
And here is the lure that they have taken from me every trip for the last three trips "Strike Sure is the name"
PS: The water temp was 56 when I went out and 63 when I came in, I caught the one in 32 foot and lost the other in 27 foot

NICE!
I experienced the fog last tuesday where i couldnt see 100yds away. Makes fishing hard when you run at idle speed.

Nice job wevans
I heard you on the radio yesterday and tried to respond. All I kept hearing was Keaton Beach Marina's chatter though
We caught ALOT of shorts also. Few nice keepers, but none like that hoss
What a beautiful day to be on the water......

That plug looks like it has better action than a strech 30. Where did you purchase it?
