Well, we were ready for a cold ass night and went straight to the bay after seeing the eroded beaches during the week. It took a little longer than last week, but the grade was so much better! Of course I forgot my real camera, but tried to take Go Pro pics and phone pics instead. the daylight pics came out great, but the night pics sucked balls!
I lost count, but pretty sure we caught 11 combined and lost just as many. This time, except for one smaller model and a round ray, they were all in the high 40 inch to low 50 inch range. Big suckers!
Steve hit the ground running with a PIG!

It them became a fish for fish duel!

The night rolled in and I have 25 useless pictures off my GoPro, so the only ones we could get were off the phones.
They were all quality fish and a whole lot of back breaking going on!

The fire was perfect as it was colder than a witches tit out there.

Rest of the pictures are giant blurs on the Go Pro, but it was a sweet evening. Even though I said 11, Steve got a round ray which counts as zero, so we really only got 10. lol
Fun times and until next tide!
WTG guys. At least it wasn't a thornback for a -1.
Right on guys! 8)
Very cool indeed guys, makes me want to hang up the light gear and do some "real fishing" 8)
Glad I nabbed supplemental fuel from work. It was cold starting ten feet from the fire.
Great night. I even caught a few fish this time.
Very cool! As long as those things take to bring in, it looks like yall probably spent more time hooked up than not! Hafta admit, I'm a little jealous of your bat cave down there! I might be fishing 3x's a week if I had access to a spot like that!😝
Jeez, looks like a serious workout. You should probably drink protein shakes in between fish.
Hopefully the bats will be here till March, looks like you guys did well 8)
kickn ass
So I guess your back is holding up quite well post surgery?!
