SO MANY LOST BIG FISH LATELY......AND I LOST THE PICTURES FROM TODAY ON MY GOPRO, TOO.
EITHER WAY WE HAD 2 REAL BIG FISH HOOKED UP YESTERDAY. USING JUST A JIGHEAD AND A PIECE OF BLUE CRAB.
ONE RAN AND JUST CAME OFF THE HOOK. THE OTHER CAME OFF AS CUSTOMER ''JIM'' WAS REELING IT IN. (A BIG DRUM, NO DOUBT! TARGETED SPECIES)
JIM AND HIS WIFE MANAGED A 5 POUND BLACK DRUM, SOME BLUEFISH, A FEW SMALL TROUT, AND ONE 16 INCH TROUT.
IF YOU WANT THEM ALL IN THE BOAT, I CAN GET THEM THERE. BUT THAT'S NOT THE POINT.
SO, THEY GOT SOME DINNER, PLUS 5 WHITING FROM THE DAY BEFORE ON A COMPLETELY
'''FAILED'' TO EVEN GET A BITE BIG BLACK DRUM ATTEMPT THE DAY BEFORE, RIGHT AFTER THE 40 MPH WINDS.
HERE'S WHAT I'M AFTER:
