I DON'T CARE WHAT THE CALENDAR SAYS. BECAUSE I'M A FISHERMAN.
BUT WHEN THE SPANISH MACKEREL ARE HERE.
IT'S SPRING TIME!
EVEN THOUGH THE MORNINGS CAN STILL BE COLD'ISH. IT'S SPRING.
USUALLY WE CATCH THE FIRST SPANISH MACS AT THE INLET.
NOT THIS YEAR.
CAUGHT THE FIRST ONE TODAY MILES FROM THE JETTIES ON A FLOAT-RIG, WHILE WE HAD A JACK CREVALLE ON ANOTHER LINE.
MY CREW FROM CALIFORNIA AND I ALSO HAD TROUT LIMITS UP TO 3 POUNDS, FLOAT-RIG FISHING.
ABOUT 8 PUP REDFISH, A BLUEFISH OR TWO (THE GREEN SCOURGE)
AND A JETTY POMPANO.
GREAT DAY WITH ANOTHER FRIDAY AND SUNDAY. THEN A BREAK TO RECOUP.
