Launched at bottoms at about 515 for a quick afterwork trip. It was a pretty afternoon once the storms moved out. This trip turned out to be more of a learning experience. Turns out you actually need water in order to fish. Go figure. And water was hard to find this evening. With a negative low tide on already shallow flats, fishing was tough. We did manage a couple of short trout, one nice blue, and a hard fighting 2 foot shark. Nothing worth taking pics but I should have taken some pics of the dry flats. It was a sight.

Then it was time for a :beer: :beer: :beer: :beer: :beer: :beer:
and everything was all better. :sleep:

Some times the learning experience trips are the best trips. I'd bet you saw stuff out there you didn't know existed. :thumbup:

Bottoms is a really fine area but it definitely requires some exploring. A good thing is most groundings involve sand; a bad thing is the ramp can be trouble during a windy low tide.
