Nut,
It was a good year indeed for me too. Glad it was for you as well!
I personally only reeled in one cow (37” preseason C&R) as my guests always go first, but put plenty of others on ‘em including a 41 ˝ incher for my 87 year young Pop. I did catch oodles of schooles. We visited a friend in Fort Meyers and I got a back water slam (a trout, feisty 24 inch red which we cooked up, and a 30 inch snook). We finally caught keeper flounder, and we tangled with slammer blues in Cape Cod. Fall was nothing short of incredible! I only got one shot at the catfish, and Spanish remains unfinished business.
Next year is Outer Banks year, and I’m looking forward to going offshore and filling the freezer with tuna as well as tying into some reds on the causeway. Perhaps we’ll get back down to Florida, and maybe I’ll finish the business of landing that 150 lb tarpon. I’m looking forward to using planer boards starting in the spring, and next year I’m going to finally get that mac, I can feel it!
Don
Oh, Nut, BTW: What's a reef donkey!
