I had about a week off since the last entry. I don't know why it is slower this year but it is. On 6/20, I took the winners of the raffle at the annual SOS cookout at Gold Bug Island. Rewis Morris and some of his buddies decided to try and catch a fish or two. We fished the outgoing tide around the harbor and wound up with 9 reds, 5 trout, and 4 flounder. Another stellar day on the water.
On the 23rd, I had return client Jim McGuire and his son Shawn. The water was really green and dirty but the fishing was still ok. We caught 10 nice reds with the largest weighing in at 15 pounds. All of the fish ate whole and cut menhaden.
On the 25th, I took Trip Cuttino to catch some reds and trout and to our surprise, we ended up with 6 reds, 2 sheepshead, and a 9 lb trout! The biggest trout I have ever seen caught.
Harry Wedewer and his troops call me up to go on the 26th and we again and another good day of fishing with 10 slot reds and a nice flounder. We fished the outgoing tide up past wild dunes and the water was green and dirty.
On the 28th, I took Brad and Rence to catch some sheepshead and that is just what we did. 7 sheepshead and 9 reds. A great trip by any standards.
