Gag shortage..... Yea right!

Post by boomhauer »

Took wife and 3 year old out of lanark tuesday afternoon to play with the sea bass and grunts..... When we arrived in 35-40 ft , after an enjoyable smooth ride, I tossed out a stretch 30 to see if we could pull in a big one to show our daughter. 10 minutes later we had a 28" gag in the boat. Took a few pics and released him back in the clear water. They are really frisky when it's cool. 15 more minutes and two more similar gags.... So hard to turn them back. After the 3rd, I put away the stretch and we played with the panfish for awhile before heading to dog to look for snails and such....

Maybe NOAA needs to actually go look at what's out there instead of standing behind their archaic computed models!

Great day!
