Dad and I got out yesterday- explored some new territory west of St Marks and had a great day. Lots of action- Trout, Lady's, Mangos, Croker, Spanish, and dad caught a big stingray he knew was a Red.

Fished Gulp and Shrimp on jigs alone and under cajun thunder.

We came home with 2 keeper trout, 3 big crokers and the biggest Spanish I have ever caught- well over 20 inches. I was working a gulp jig back to the boat and he almost ripped the rod out of my hand. Got him in the boat and my line was shredded- left me wondering how he didn't get off.


I'm breaking out the smoker!


Had to finish this with photos of the smoked fish- Brined it with brown sugar, salt and water for 4 hours. Smoked it 2.5 hours on the charcole smoker with hickory. Turned out perfect.

Good times with Dad tuff to beat that

THAT IS A NICE SIZE SPANISH, BET HE GAVE YA A GOOD PULL. MY YOUNGEST SON IS COMING UP THURS. TO GO FISH WITH ME, I HOPE WE CAN REPEAT WHAT WE DID LAST NIGHT. THOSE PICS WERE GREAT.
