"JETTYWOLF LIVE" 11/9/2017

Out and about with buddy Nick, aboard my "JETTYWOLF". Getting in a days fishing, (and hoping for some keepers, for dinner) before the weekend cold front with big winds.

Plan was to go light tackle, and either pitch jig & shrimp combo meals, or do some Float-rig Fishing (slip-floats) with live shrimp.

Would have loved to get into the heaps of Black Drum, like I caught in this video just 6 days prior (last week): https://youtu.be/U1kHaqiknTY

But the Croakers were so thick. And the Redfish, were either
"TOO SMALL OR TOO BIG"" to be kept for a dinner in the state of Florida.

So, we went at high tide up into a shallow area, hoping for "keeper sized" Speckled Trout, and Black Drum.

We had a good time anyhow. And did box enough Speckled Trout, Yellowmouth Trout (weakfish) and a small but over legal sized Black Drum for us to split, so we could have fish dinners.

Moral of the story here folks is. When you go out on a charter even, "keeper grocery fish??"".....I'm not in charge of what size fish bites!

SURE, we could have filled a cooler with Croakers while we were out there. But that's not what we were looking for.
