Trip Summary

2 - guys from Jax. aboard the Jettywolf ll today. Morning started slow, it was high tide. And had a hard SW wind. Fishing jig-n-shrimp combo meals on light spinners. But as the tide fall, my guys got on a dozen Redfish. All small puppers as I call them. The creeks are full of them in the heat of the summer. Also picking up a Speckled Trout that was just under-sized. And a nice fat 12 inch Mangrove snapper, and 5 Black Drum (in photos), in which 2 were keepers and hit the ice along with the Mangrove Snapper. A lot of under slot fish this time of year, but the action was fast as long as that tide ran. It was comfortable, not to hot with all the wind. Yep, each day stands alone this time of year. We all had fun, and loads of laughs.
