The fish weren’t biting - no one was catching anything, including all the boats around us. The captain did everything he could to locate fish. Both that’s fishing. We will get them next time.
Enjoyed conversation and the water.

What a great, fun, day on the gulf!!  My nephews and I had a wonderful day fishing with Captain Jerry.  The book is in excellent condition, the fishing rods and reels were all easy to use.  With a simple lesson we were ready to cast our lines.  Our group included two young teens, ages 12 and 14.  As well as an old lady, 70 and slightly handicapped using a cane.  Jerry, and his deck hand, Trey were patient and helpful assisting me onto (and off) the boat.  We fished for a few hours and the boys caught fish such as trout, rock fish, and even a couple of eels.  Captain Jerry then set the boat to trawling and we hoped to catch a couple of sharks.  TJ had a shark on the line, but it jumped the hook about 4 feet from the boat.  Weather was great most of the day - had some shade and a breeze at times.  But we didn’t really mind the hot July day because we were on the water having a blast!
