Slow night. Got there and the tide was out and just starting to come in. Only picked up one keeper at 16". I did see 8 that were too small and a 14 1/2 I passed on. The highlight of the night was an empty bed I came across. It was huge. My gig has a mark at 25" and I layed it on top of the bed and it was an easy 28" long. I probably would have passed on that one if she was there..... now that I am older. When I was younger. 1975 to 1985 I gigged 4 that were 27 to 28. Things were different back then.

The 25" mark is for summer when the Star Tourney is on. I wear a wading belt and carry a rod and bag of curly tail Gulps in case the miracle happens and I see a monster. Of coarse that never happens. Since the mid 1980's the biggest has been 23. The large bed I spotted last night was right next to a deep gut.
BTW....Hopefully I will have my boat ready sometime and can get to more spots. I hurt my back last November and that has put most things on hold. No money coming in and restictions on how much I can lift really sucks. I bought a bare hull and have been slowly rigging it out. 18 foot X 96" beam.
