Early Christmas gift was

received at the conclusion of a beautiful, but COLD day on the Gulf. At least 3 dozen speckled trout were fooled on artificial on med light spinning tackle. Fortunate to get my limit of 5 with one trophy 20". Most fish were under the 15" limit, but caught 10 keepers. Best gift was last spot with a 34" Snook testing my knot-strength on med. light spinning tackle before I slipped the net for the photo-shoot/release (out of season).[emoji1690] Blue crabs also made the ice-bath!Attachment 444792Attachment 444791Attachment 444793Attachment 444794

Thanks Keith...In reflecting that trip's end result, my analogy = My Feb. 28th Shoulder-break incident yielded the self-assigned GUIDE/front-seat electric motor mate. Probably, knowing me, was able to finagle a modest amount of "fishing". Even remember having assessed your netting skills as Byford was in his Surface-drive CAPTAINS chair. Now, that being relayed...remember the old, famous saying "You can lead the horse to water, but he doesn't(can't) have to drink it!!:twocents:popcorn:dono:biggrin Please refer to my latest post...just coming off the press.
