I was so excited Wednesday night I was not getting any sleep so I got up and headed on down. Dropped down on the beach off Bluewater Hwy about 0100. First thing I noticed was the wind was really whippin'! I pulled up at a place that looked alright and laid the seat back and went immediately to sleep. I woke up about 10 minutes after 6:00 and began setting up. Turned out that I was only about 50' or so from the place I was at last time. Lots of dead seaweed everywhere but I did find a clean patch where I could set up the "kitchen".
Mid morning I had a surprise visitor. FINALLY got to meet and shake hands with Mr. Jerry McCoy. He is one fine gentleman, I te'ya. Jerry, thank you for stopping by and introducing yourself. I hope you will start coming to some of our get togethers now. It was a pleasure to meet you, at last.
Well, the wind was whippin', the tide was rippin', and the seaweed was awful. I had a plan. Plan A was to catch some nice specs and have a fried fish lunch. Didn't work out so Dinty Moore saved me again. Kinda funny, mid afternoon the rip let up some and the weed disappeared. I mean it was GONE. ?? I finally caught a small sand trout and put it on the big rod alive and had a fine run. Got broke off but it was fun for a minute there. A little later I caught a small whiting and had the exact same results. Put it on alive and got broke off for my trouble.
The water was great, it even made a feeble attempt at greening up, and the wind seemed to kind of lighten up mid afternoon. It was a thoroughly pleasant day, with or without any specs or reds. I just can never get enough of that kind of stuff.
#1. Sunrise, kind of sets the mood for the day.
#2. Uh-oh! I caught severl of these "exotics"
#3. & 4. Camp WJ.
#5. Plan B.
#6. Did I mention that it was a little windy?
Back in a bit with..."the REST of the story.
