We left dock at 6:30am and we had 10 trout the first hour . Then 8 year old Jack wanted to catch a Flounder so it took us 2 hours to catch HIS Flounder . He was so excited. We also caught a couple more trout . It didn’t take long to find massive schools of black drum .it took us 45 min to land 13 drum . What a day it was !
