St Marks 5-3 with Dad
Posted: May 3rd, 2007, 8:49 pm
Had some work to take care of early and then slipped out with dad about 10.
The parking lot at the Lighthouse ramp was crowded- much more than I thought it would be on a Thursday.
It was glass smooth and a wonderful morning.
First keeper trout was 17"
Then dad lost a big one... Broke the line and then threw the plug.
It floated back up and he tied it back on and kept fishing.
I was giving him a hard time and then he caught this one...
All the trout were on topwater!!
We fished till high tide at 2:30 then ran in for lunch at Riverside.
After lunch we ran back out and I threw the cast net over some pinfish to drift.
We did that for a while with a few strikes and a few cut lines.
Then caught some Spanish before heading back in...
Great day- good mess of fish and good time with Dad!
