Nice!

Fished a ss inlet yesterday eve on the incoming tide. Pretty solid action with the big blues on bucktails. Did manage one short striper 27-inch as well, released.

Took a half a day off from work today to chase after whatever would hit my line. Started at high tide in the bay GSB area. Slammer Blues attacking pencil poppers. Came in for some refreshements and change some leaders. Going back out. Beautiful day for gator blues fellas.

Awesome. Got into the same yesterday 6-10pm. Monster gators. Up to 14lbs. Great action I love the fight. All on topwater in the bay.

Blues again this AM trip. 12:45-9:00.
Bay side for a short bit first, nothing.
Then ocean side in the dark, picked up 3, Sun-up inlet and 5 more.
One on SS popper one on green Ava, rest on darters and Sebile Stick Shad.
Lost a few and missed some hits.
Fishing with crushed barbs this year so far, liking it.
Beautiful night out there, fun trip. 25 inches to 36 inches (most over 30).
Like Plugginpete said, love the fight from the Gators.
Calm conditions for a change.

Just got done. Put in a quick pm trip before suppertime. I was jigging bucktails in an inlet near the top of the tide. Only gave it a little while because there were a lot of weeds. Managed one blue. didn't see a lot of others caught. Shame, because I thought it would be perfect but hey that's the way it goes in fishing.
