I normally fish on Black Friday but this year my brother in law and my nephew we're coming down for Thanksgiving dinner.
And wanted to go fishing.
So I went a day early.
We left my dock at 6:30 with a 45:00 minute boat ride to to our first spot.
We pulled up on our first spot within 5 minutes the bird's diving and the fish we're busting on the bait . And you got a bite every cast. We fished Cape haze point on that stop. Next stop Bull Bay third cast and we we're on them again. After an hour we moved to turtle bay and worked the West side for a few. Moved North to the Bird Island and we we're back in the fish.
One more spot before we had to go. We fished East of the manatee bouys in about 4 feet of water for another hot spot.
These fish we're bigger. Each of us caught at least 10 fish each stop 4 stops over 120 fish for 4 hours of fishing. The Hot baits were a White 3.5 swim bait. And a DOA .5 oz shrimp under a poppin Cork.
We left every spot after the dolphins we're getting aggressive.
The last stop the puffers ate your rubber every cast.
I ran out of swim baits.
Great day on the water .
And dinner was ready when we got to the dock.
All that is a good thing to be thankful for.
Happy Thanksgiving all you fishing stage anglers. Sorry no pictures today.
