6/16 Slow Morning/ Great Afternoon
This morning I had the Charles Walker Crew onboard. We attempted to fish the ocean but the seas were tough. It started out at 2 to 4ft. and we eased out to an area that's been producing a good surface bite. Well, not long into fishing and the storms began rolling in from the approaching front. We hooked up a king mackerel and a 4lb Spanish along with few sharks, then the seas picked up and our crew wasn't feeling the best so, we headed inside to finish up the morning. Slow morning with the East Winds.
This afternoon was a little nicer than the weather man predicted. I headed back out with Rick Meyers, his son, and brother. We went and loaded down the livewell with shrimp, tied on the popping corks, and worked some nearby bays for Reds. We started out picking up a few black drum about 2lbs. Then, after working several pieces of Shoreline we got on a school of reds ranging from 17in to 24in. We picked up about 20 redfish before heading back to the dock. Great Job Guys!

ps. I apologize for the lack of photos this week. My new "waterproof camera" wasn't so waterproof. After two weeks, it quit and Best Buy said it'll be 2 to 3weeks before they can get it back to me. Fooey! Anyway, several of my clients are taking photos and I'll post the pics with these reports as they arrive via email.
