Pretty windy out of the West, but better that than the South

Fighting and catching a redfish
These two guys from yankee lands up north fought this thing for quite a
while before I got there.

The 28 lb., 27 in. red was fought and landed on 10# line using a #7 hook. That
takes a lot of patients and knowhow.

Sunny, 60°, stiff breeze from northeast, water is a little murky from all the
heavy rain runoff, but if the wind was calm, it would be pure heaven. Forgive
the slanted horizons, I couldn't see my led monitor when snapping.

One of our many slick days in winter. I needed to run some fuel through the
engine so I hit the Sound Side.
Some of my favorite watering holes on the Sound->

This is why I never run close to shore. This was big enough to take a motor off
the boat->
