Yikes the fishing gods must be angry ⚡️🫯⚡️ the conditions today were abominable but we chugged up to grounds where it has been most productive 🎣🎣and we’re disappointed to say the least🫤 we stuck it out till a little after 1(one) and only managed 35-40 fish for the day 😖 there were times during the week that we saw that many fish in 15-20 minutes 🎣🎣🎣🎣🎣
Think Catherine or Jimmy were high liners with 4 or 5 apiece 🎣We will be back at it again 8am tomorrow 8am Porgies 8am
Just a pic or two hopefully we’ll be back to normal again tomorrow

Well not much to report on the fishing front . It has certainly been one of the poorest starts of the season. Sometimes I think we think of fish like the swallows of Capistrano 🤷🏼‍♂️ but the water is warming and hopefully they’ll be here in mass before we know it 🎣

Disappointing start to our fishing season 🎣 it’s been a struggle getting out during the week to say the least 🤷🏼‍♂️ I think the weather has improved the water temperature and hopefully the scup have moved down to the western sound 🎣🎣
We are shaping up every single day 🎣 so come on down 🎣🎣
