Holy Mackerel!!

Out to the reef on Saturday afternoon
after Football and Pizza at the local
Sports Pub.

Nothing beats Food, Football, and Fishing!
Well....Almost nothing. Keepin' it clean.

We found the reef on the first try,
of course it did help that there was
another boat sitting on it.

Honestly though, we really didn't notice
until we got there. Really.

What an absolutely beautiful day,
lots of sunshine and a wonderful breeze.

Not a lot of fish biting, but I guess
we can't have everything.

We got enough good bites to keep us happy.
I caught a Spanish Mackerel (check out those
teeth) and Andrea caught a little tiny Grouper.

She wouldn't let me take a picture because
she wanted to get it back into the water quickly.
It was so cute.

We did some flats fishing as the sun started
to set and we got into a school of Lady Fish.


They're a pain when we're targeting Snook
and Reds, because they cause such a ruckus,
but they're a lot of fun when not much
else is biting.


Lady Fish are also called poor man's Tarpon
because they come flying out of the water
and shake their heads furiously trying
to throw the hook, just like Tarpon do.

The sunset was gorgeous but the boat
ramp was a fluster cuck, as usual.

News flash people, common courtesy makes
things run so much more smoothly. Geeeeez.

Peace, Love, and Lady Fish!
