D.I. 2004
Home Up

Friday Dec. 10, 2004

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.

Feb 27, 2004

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->
