Conditions: Hot, no wind, good water.
Donna and I had some friends come down from the Austin area with their 7 year old son and their 16 year old daughter and a friend of hers.
Headed out about 8:30 am, because we had problems finding shrimp (Jerry and Becky had some). The two young girls stayed at the house, took Davey and his parents fishing.
Drifted some shell reefs in Chocolate by ICW. As I mentioned there was no wind at all, made it tough to drifted, so we anchored a few places until the wind picked up enough to get us moving. Donna caught a 17" red, mother caught a small shark, Davey caught small shark and 1 yellow tail.
My neighbor spotted us and called me to let me know they were on some fish, so we moved that way. Throwing popping cork with shrimp near shell reef, started to get some action.
Donna caught another 16-17" red.
Davey (7 year old) caught a 21.5" 3.5lb trout on a zebco reel. You should have seen him fighting this fish. His smile tells it all!
I did not drop a line in and that was just fine with me, it was a pleasure watching Davey and the others catching some fish.
