Headed out Saturday, taking the brother in law with me. got a late start to the day lauching from the lighthouse around 12:30. Tide was moving in, winds were light and onshore, water temp never got above 67 degrees new our first drift east of the lighthouse. managed two shorts and two keepers in that drift, headed east to start another and got two more keepers, one blue and two more shorts. all were caught on live shrimp under a CT and gulp on jigs. used the new gulp ghost shrimp, good concept for the movement, but the pinfish love the apendages, and they come back looking like regular gulp quickly. all fish caught in 4-6 feet of water, left out right prior to high tide. That was the good part, bad part was heading back in following two other boats tracks ahead of me, lost the skeg and a chunk of the lower unit on a rock around Sundown rock. one that is just to the south of Sundown. never thought about it with high tide and onshore winds, and the two other boats right ahead of me going in. bad part, really expensive to fix, good part, Insurance.
no pictures as fish were only right over 15 to 16 inches.
