A good friend of mine needed some salt therapy, so Shoddy and I got to the ramp at sunrise. There was already a half full lot. Guess a tournament going on. So we put the boat in and headed out the canal. 
We headed north and started fishing. The wind, what little there was, blew opposite the tide. So there was no drift at all the entire day. So fishing was tough.
But we did manage a few fish. Including this guy.
It put up a heck of a fight. We went all over even as far as doghead. But never could get on a good bite. So at 2:30 we headed in. Got in the canal and it looked like scallop season. A line of boats past the condos with nobody moving. What the heck? Guess someone was walking to their truck a 1/4 mile down the road. So I eased up to the dock between the ramps and pitched my buddy off and eased back by the condos to wait. Couple minutes later he called and said backing down. So I ease by the other boats to pull out. One guy says “dang man you just gonna jump in front of us?” I said “my truck is on the ramp. It’s the first truck at the ramp that loads out, not the first boat at the ramp”. Why is that so hard to understand? Had a great day on the water can’t wait to go again.
