Fished 2 spots this morning with Jake on a big outgoing tide, 0930-1245.

First was totally new to me and looked promising from the satellite view, but got no bites. Several hurdles for that spot, but might be okay on an incoming instead of an outgoing tide next time.

Second spot was also tough. Soaked for bats and for UL critters, only got a few short bites on the UL. Some signs of rays feeding on the shoreline. Walked by a guy who said he hadn't caught anything, then walked by his stringer of short spotties. I would have called the DFW if he weren't packing up.

Dog off of a leash ran into the water and into my UL line at one point, thankfully didn't get tangled. I recently dog-sat for a big doodle and the experience further enlightened me to all the hazards for dogs. It affirms my view of how many stupid dog owners are out there.

Hot day! Drank a whole gatorade, even took my shirt off for a wee bit to activate some melanin. Unfortunately I blinded Jake and he will be unable to pre-fish with me tomorrow.

Gonna try something else for pre-fishing tomorrow, not entirely sure what but it will probably involve an incoming tide.

Hahaha, well nice way to strike some spots off the list. I especially love the dog story as Squatch and I have more than I can even recall.

I'm heading down tomorrow for some aerial recon. I have 5 areas I want to check out from above before I make our call for Team SD.
You can't catch them from your computer chair.

When Alicia finishes nursing school I may be joining Team SD indefinitely, so I gotta show you guys up this year while I can!

And Newport has no shortage of girls! Unfortunately it isn't the Saturday Night Girl Fight though...
