Econfina 7/10
Not much but thought I'd share. My middle daughter and I launched at 7:00 and ran West to 5.5'. Ran past some boats fishing in the 3.5' range. Anyhow, first drift was successful in that we put a 16" trout in the cooler that she caught. Threw back 2 shorts. Water was gin clear and grass plentiful. I was really thinking things were turning around. Made the drift again and I managed a 17" trout and another short. By this time, the shallow anglers made their way out to the deeper water. Tried that drift again and BOOM! Ladyfish out the wazoo! She had fun with them but I grew tired of it pretty quick. We moved around some back towards the East. More Ladyfish, Lizardfish, short trout, and the most sharks I have caught in one day, EVER. Headed out to bird rack #2 to try to catch some rack bass for mama. No dice. Sharks! Lost 3 packs of SWA jig heads before coming back in to search for mullet. A few lone jumpers but no schools. Came back in on low tide around 3'ish. Total: 2 keepers, 8 shorts, ten hundred thousand sharks and various other trash fish. Left them down there.

That is what it is all about! She'll make a good wife and mother some day. She'll tell her children how she grew up fishing with her daddy and all those big fish they caught.
I like it! Keep fishing and loving those children.
Sweet memories!

Looks like she had fun! I'm blaming those sharks for the poor fishing the past several months. Towards the end of last summer I started catching tons of young little sharks, more than ever before, and ever since then the fishing hasn't been what it used to be.

Thats a winner trip in my book
Its about spending time together, getting out on the water and CATCHING fish... the species does not matter!
