Hit Ecofina landing at 7:00 with my son and friend Daniel and headed out. The tide was as low as I will attempt to get out with my boat(.9). Had to idle out the mouth and got to fishing. Daniel took my to school having 4 trout in the box before I got one. Even my boy caught trout before I did. The pinfish were really annoying today so I sent some of them back on a hook. This yielded mostly sharks. But did get one trout and a 4' gar. Was going to get pic of it but it would not fit in a trout net. Water was 78-79degrees and clear everywhere. As much as I hate buying them gulps were all the wanted(in any color) but glow was best. Wound up with 15 trout to 18" and 3 big seabass. We had to work for for them and wade thru many shorts. Caught more lizard fish and other trash fish than I had ever seen. Had a great day and now we are going to have a fish fry.

The more I know about something, the more I know that I did not know as much as I thought I knew that I knew.
Hitting a rock wot does a lot more damage than it does just bumping it. I was also saying nicely why the SA comment on HitnMiss's post. Great job HitnMiss, Some people like RC are just jealous they can't catch a nice stringer of trout like you guys did.
