Happy Father’s Day

My #2 son came down from Georgia for a long weekend. He, my #4 son (local boy), my son-in-law, two of my grandkids, and I all got to spend some quality time beach fishing. We had so much variety: whiting, bonito (false albacore), flounder, barracudas!, sailor’s choice, grunt, pompano, scum cat, jack crevalle, black margate, blue runners, croaker, and mottled jaw fish (and maybe some I’ve forgotten. We lost track of first, most, biggest, and only. We’d had solid, hard rain for days leading up and the next week looks the same, but this weekend was perfect.












We could hardly get the rod in the holder before it got hit.

New Hobby

 I've retaken up beach fishing.  The Rockin' Doc and I used to fish on the beach when I was a boy. Dad and I never did too well, we were much better fishing out of the boat in the ocean. But some of my boys and I have been having a blast.  Squid got me started.  He's really taken up fishing.  LT (a local boy), Doc, and TPat have all had a hand. We've caught all kinds and sizes of fish.  Here's some pics"
