We started out hitting some docks in Madeira Beach and caught some Redfish and Drum then the weather turned for the worst so we went to Blinds Pass bridge and stayed under there and were catching mango snapper till the weather passed. Afterward we made a run to Gulfport to finish out the day with few more Reds. All fish were caught on 15 lb braid and 20# leader with a #1 bronze hook.
