Loanshark, Daniel, and I left boston at 5:00, stopped at Wilsons got ice and supplies and was headed out the canal before the sun peaked over the horizon. The offshore forecast had me worried that it was going to be rough. But it was not bad at all so we ran straight to Spring warrior. Started with topwater but got no love from the fish so we started trying other things. Right off the bat Loanshark hooks up with a BIG trout on a pinfish and it gets off about ten feet from the boat.
We hope this does not set the tone for the day and thankfully it did not. Daniel has been fishing with me since last summer and had not as of yet caught a keeper. He has caught about 100 14.999" trout. Today luck changed he caught a 15.25, a 16, and a 18" trout as well as a nice rock bass. Loanshark wound up with his limit with a 21" and a big blue. Sadly the boat captain only got a 16, a 18, and a short cobia.
10 trout in the box. We caught tons of just short trout and sea bass. The water was 68-70 degrees. Stained at Spring Warrior but cleared up around Addams. 5-7' was the best depth for today and anything with pink in it seemed to work. Great day on the water. I tried to hail members on 14 but nobody would answer.
On a side note it was funny while we idled away from the dock. These two guys that were there before us getting ready to back in. One says to the other "they got here after us and they are already headed out".
They had not even backed down yet.
Hoping to leave early Friday morning, fish mid-day Friday thru mid-day Sunday. If you have a VHF, give me a holler. I ain't got a cool Call Sign like Chalk, BirdDog, JumpTrout, TinCan, Eerman, and the others..............so holler for Ron Wilson and I'll answer up.
