Mashes Sands/Bouy 26 9-15-05

Post by wevans »

Fished the Oyster bars first thing, caught 2 Reds "lost another niceun", 3 Trout "could only keep one, all over 20"s" lots of short strikes :-D headed out and started trolling at 35 foot just off of Buoy 26, went out to 50 foot, then trolled to Buoy 24, caught 7 Grouper, all but one was short :smt010 ran in at 2:30 and saw quite a few dead bait fish floating in the channel going into Mashes :smt010 so we may not escape the red tide after all :smt011

Hey Wevans, I was at Marker 24 earlier this year and the bouy was sunk. Have they raised it? Of course this was months ago.

Maybe that's why I didn't see it :o I turned and went in about a mile away from where it should have been, I just figured the haze had it blocked from my sight :-D
