    Default 10/29 Report

    Made the decision this am after dropping kids off to school to fish. Called Hinches-they have bait so we are off

    Not feeling the greatist-got what my daughter had sans fever so no breakfast or lunch and only 1 lemonade icetea form wawa.

    get to hinches, get the fresh and notice I forgot a hat-pick up a very nice OFF the Hook hat. Load boat and off we go.

    Spot 1-drag hook 4 times andf decide try spot 2 to see if can get hooked. Boat didnt start at 1 point-jiggled teh kill switch and she cranked over

    Spot 2-drag hook 3 times and give up-great marks too

    Heading in make a few calls and decide to borrow buddies anchor past Miss chris dock. Look at achor and decide just park at free ramp-run over to Tonys and pick up a 13lber.

    Head back out to spot 2 with tide still going out and throw hook-slammed it into botom and we are fishing at 11am

    11:30 new rod with a circle jerk doubles over/no drag pays out and hook pulls. Didnt think the lever drag was that tight but I gues it was

    Make a last ditch move at 1 cause I gotta get home by 3:30

    Anchor dropped and hooked at 1:20 and 1st fish on by 2-36" caught by my cuz and the second at 2:25-5 minutes till pull out time. My cuz catches teh second 41" 31 lbs and off to the dock.

    Not bad for a last second trip and the troubles we had

    Tom, as always great report!! Your hard work (alot of it!) definitely paid off with some nice fish! Sorry to hear that you're feeling a bit under the weather, hope you can shake it soon and hope your daughter starts to feel a bit better too.

    BTW, sorry I missed you (again) this morning when you picked up the the bait. I've just been very lucky with having a great staff that is giving me a few more hours to my day!

    GREAT CATCH!!!!
