Fishing Trip

Me with the first catch of the day

Rob, Jesse, Joe heading out

We had a great day on the water yesterday. We launched at Cockroach Bay at around 7:30 am and tried out some spots along the mangroves on our way out the flats. No luck there, so we netted some green backs and worked the flats landing some good size keeper trout. Around 12:00 noon we headed to a channel marker near Manbirdie Key. Had some good luck there landing some mackerel and some just under size grouper and snapper. It was fun. Headed home around 3:30 pm. It was a good day of fishing. You can check out some more pics on my flickr account.
