Talk about an emotional roller coaster today! It was definitely Friday the 13th! First of all, the boat didn’t start at the launch, luckily I had a spare battery and swapped it right out…. Then, when my customers got there, someone accidentally took their lunches and their beers thinking it was theirs (honest mistake).
We hit our first stop and caught a keeper right off the bat…. Then nada! So we hit the next spot and it produced ONE BITE, but that bite was a Stud Redfish! Then we headed to the total opposite end of the bay, and we caught up with the guys that had the lunches and beers! And then BAM! A Stud Trout! Then nada, again! We ground it out and tried to get a few more fish in the box, but it was just brutal today…. In the end, we ended up winning First Place Big Redfish (8.7 lbs) and Second Place Big Trout (4.15 lb) in the 2022 IEC Tournament
Oh but wait! Then I got a flat on my trailer on the way to the weigh in! Damn, Friday the 13th wasn’t playing this year, but Thank you Jesus for taking care of us and also providing some awesome fish for us!!!
