Three guys in the tide

Trip Summary

Unfortunately yesterday the Northeast wind kept blowing.. The cold water stayed in were fish did not want to get up and move around. Most of the fleet was staying insure and bottom fishing just so they can show their parties a fish but I talked to my guys and they wanted to go out and try the shoals in deeper water so we did. After trolling for a few hours nothing going on we decided to go and float on a wreck see if we could pick up some gray trout. The current was so strong that each time we put our baits down in 75 ft water we would go flying by it so fast that it be hard for a fish to keep up but we tried multiple times. Still with no luck we decided to call it a day. Being skunked is one of the worst trips that any Captain could ever go through and I'm sure any capt will tell you that but with the captain and the mate both trying very hard and try multiple things it just did not work out so for the three guys that went out with us I really hope you had a good time and a great boat ride and I hope you will come back and let us try to get some fish in the fish box for you from the crew of the fishing taxi tight lines God bless
