Tough conditions but we where able to preserve!
Very windy conditions and an 8 degree water temp drop over night made it a challenge to locate the fish early in the trip. After not getting anything on the line at the first few spots, and weather picking up in the Bay Captain Jake had us pick up one more time and move to another bayou that could protect us better from the wind. This move definitely saved the day. Started a little slow, but soon enough brought in the first Redfish of the day. Right behind it, mangrove snapper. Ended up staying in the bayou the rest of trip and taking home 2 Redfish and 5 mangrove snapper. Perfect for nice fish fry afterwards! Overall a challenging day but you need those days to keep you humble. Captain Jake was kind enough to offer us the option of calling the trip early due to weather but glad we stuck it out, persevered, and bring home some fish. Jake was great with the kids, good conversation, and a pleasure to have as the Captain.
tjanl you for the kind words and great review! glad yall got that fish fry despite the almost 30 mph winds! hope to seecyall again on charterboat 2nd chance. be safe and blessed!
