We left the ramp at 0730 and met some sloppy sea's. We headed out to 45' and started fishing. Not much going on as the tide was near stopped when we got there. We used live pins, sardines, squid and some old stuff I had in the freezer. After about 2 hours we moved around and ended up in 65'. Not much happening. All we caught were non-keepers. What was weird is we caught 2 red fish in 60' both were 28". I don't know why they were there but it was fun. Below is a list of stuff we caught:

2 Nurse sharks to 6'
1 Reef Shark
2 Short gags
2 28" reds
1 Octopus
1 Blue runner
1 Sardine
2 Stone Crabs

I think that about sums up our day. It was fun and the sharks pulled the string well. I had three guys that had never been and my brother. I was hoping to put some Grouper in the boat. Maybe next time.
