Lost 2 that were even bigger at the boat because I hadn’t gotten the net out yet. Lost a good size flounder as well. Told her there went $1,500! But that’s ok, 2 more days to get a flounder and trout on the board! Hate it when you hunting trout and flounder for Day 1 and we located some huge redfish beating shrimp up like it was going out of style!
Sorry to hear about the fish loss, but that’s fishing!!! Thanks for the report and I wish you and your partner the best!!! There is not one fisherman that has no story of a “lost” fish. Or twenty.
Stumpknocker, Day 2 cost us $2,000 in fish. I would have had a First Responder largest trout as well as overall largest trout…but he came off. 30 minutes later my youngen had a 1st place trout for junior and would have been a 2nd place overall but she lost that one too…oh well, she is all aboard this tournament thingy
