Left the lighthouse at Image
9:30am with my wife and son
went to the West flats in anywhere from 8 to 2 feet.
caught couple of keepers on pinfish and CT,
but most were caught on jigs on the bottom with fishbites.
Hooked up with a 27 1/2 inch almost 6 lb monster. measured at the scales of Jerry's Bait Shop
Ended the day with 5 keepers up to 27 and 1/2 inches, did I say that again.
Great day.
Only caught trout, not one trash fish allday. :thumbup:

Capt Pat McGriff gave us some Samples at the last or next to last
NFGFC, Glitter Eels from Saltwater assasin. more yellow than bone.

fished kind of slow.

Really I could not believe that it was a trout it was hugh.
It was a awesome time with my family, they were a great crew.
So often I'm the bait boy on the water, but this time they all
came together to get the fish on board.

Great, Great day.
