The wife and I took a last minute trip to Shell Point after work with the kayaks. We put in at the beach at about 6:45 and fished East of the channel. Water was a little rough, but not so bad that our anchors couldn't hold. Ended up with a couple keeper trout, a nice Spanish mackerel, and a few lady fish. On a side note the mackerel was the first one my wife had ever caught, and at 24" it gave her light tackle a good run. She's pretty new to saltwater fishing, so she wasn't sure what she had caught. I had to hurry and pull anchor to rush over and she what she had caught because she didn't know. I asked her what it was and her reply was "I don't know.....it's big....has a lot of spots......and lots of teeth"

Nice

Thanks for the update. Three weeks ago got skunked.

We have been skunked plenty of times. We put out at blue dolphin ramp yesterday around 6:15 and worked our way around to the big oyster bar on the right. Wife caught 2 cats and I got skunked. Wind was pretty bad though.

Might be heading to shell point after work for a few hours with the yak. Got skunked last trip, so I need some retribution.

Fished yesterday early morning there. Only one 20" trout on a clouser. Only bite of the outing. Some mullet jumping, one turtle spotted. Still nice to see sun rise on the water

Caught a nice 24” redfish around the oyster bar on a top water lure. Saw one of the most beautiful sunsets I have ever seen and also watched the blood moon rise on the water. I could have stayed all night.
