Trip Summary

4 trips today...it was hot but the fishing was even hotter. The first 3 trips today we fished the ocean and jigged grey trout, silver trout, banded grunts, spanish mackerel, croaker, and sharks. My 4th trip today we fished inshore as the winds kicked up the seas...We caught several nice flounder, a nice speckled trout, and a stingray. Capt Rennie
