Jodie and I launched The Red Fishing Machine at the lighthouse pool at 0600 this morning and headed west.
It wasn't a banner day. Nothing like Friday. The tide was a slow fall today. And the sun was bright early. No fog or overcast. The wind picked up about 0900 and that cut down on seeing the fish move. Still not a terrible day. We landed 5 reds, and lost that many more.
I'm beginning to like this red fishing. The only down side is affording the tackle. It was a $25 tackle morning.

Those reds do take a toll on your tackle. Glad ya'll got to go and had a chance at 10 or so reds. That sounds pretty good to me. What was the biggest?

What do you mean? Does that mean they stole 5 x $5 plugs?

Dave, there's ugly stuff under the water in some of these places. I would immagine one could pick up thousands of dollars in tackle if you could see the stuff.

TC,
Thought I saw you today; but, must have been another Key West. 10 reds hooked up ina day sounds pretty awesome to me.

Wasn't in the Key West, Eerman. I was in my new (to me) flats boat. I wouldn't even think of taking the Key West in the places I've been the last week.

Sounds like y'all had a sporting day there TC.
I ain't had much hankerin' to get out in the heat myself, since the blow came through.
Maybe we'll see a little change in the Wx trends in 2 or 3 weeks.
Come on 'fall'.
Way to go on them 'reds'.
