Great Shot of the Gator !

How'd you get him off the hook?

We waited until about 10:30 to launch this morning, because of the negative tide. Ran west to Goose Greek Bay to meet up with Mr. and Ms. Short Strike.

I had 1 red follow my bait to the boat about 5 minutes after we started fishing. SR caught a 13" flounder while we were drifting out by Pattys, waiting on the Short Strikes. SR caught the gator later in the afternoon. That was it for the day. We saw very few mullet moving. The worst was when the fog rolled in at about 11:30. Once it rolled in it was there for the day. Ran back from Wakulla beach to the lighthouse in the fog. Gotta love a GPS.

Well, it's not the quanity of the catch, more like the quality of the company, sometimes... And , y'all did catch a gator- That must have been exciting.
Enquiring minds certainly want to know the whole story.
I'm sure it will be good.
