Nothing big but finally got some action

Been a while since we’ve been able to fish. So picked up some live shrimp and off to the jetties we went. started fishing corks and nada. finally started catching fish on the bottom, but everything seemed small. Wife missed the biggest one of the day right at the boat. It was my fault, the line broke where I crimped a barrel sleeve on the line like I do for the weight stop on my Carolina rigs. UGH. I think it was a black drum but not really sure. that coulda been dinner. O’well. beautiful day today and quality time with the wifey.

The wondering what it is can sometimes be worse than losing one you see. At least you got out there, thanks for the report.

At least you got out there. Looks like it was a beautiful day.

A lost flounder in Clouter Creek haunts me every time I drive over the bridge. It was huge and I lost it right at the boat.

Lost a big bass earlier today at bushy park… My fault as well! I had just been fishing the salt side for specks and I didn’t stick it to him when setting the hook. Yep, gave him the wimpy hook set lol. My last trip to the jetties was about the same, managed to catch a few spots a black drum and a sheepshead.

Looks as though the two of you had a great day on the rocks. Good luck in the days ahead!
