My nephew was visiting and he's never gone fishing, so why not... We hit the Bahia as every other spot that had bonfire rings were taken. Started a fire and casted out 2 long rods with mack and a critter rod with shrimp.
Lots of peeps out fishing. Saw at least 4 groups. I doubt they were any from here as none had rod tip lights... Lol!! We got a late start so we were stuck 2.5hrs before peak low. Not looking good, but a nice fire and marshmallow roasting helped a bunch.

Actually didn't take long to see some action. Got 2 round rays on the critter in just a few minutes. Had a few dropped baits on the long rods before one finally stuck. Been a while since I heard some decent drag rip from my reel. Handed off to my Lucas as he was the only who hadn't pulled on anything. A couple of minutes later, a decent butterfly ray hits the sand. He handled the long rod well and refused to let me finish off the ray. ;D

I called it not too long after that, as the tide was bottoming out and boys were getting cranky from being tired. Nothing spectacular, but my boys will never forget these nights.
Keep those reports with the kids coming, Mike. You know they will always remember this. Nice butterfly also!
Sweet.. easy parking and mellow tide swings.
I know that spot. Have had a few great knights there.
Good of you to take the kids 8)
I saw you guys down there. Got there but had to move a different location as there wasn't really any decent room to fish. Wound up on the east side of the bay next to group of college girls sitting around a fire talking about their bedroom life and how they like certain things, not that I was listening or anything ;D
More than awesome, the smiles say it all ;D
Can't do better than the smiles on those faces 8)
