Cousin Dennis joined me for my last morning on the Bay, and brought a wee bit o the luck with 'im. Except for the great outing with Uncle Curtis I've mostly been watching everyone else catch fish ...... just haven't been able to get in the groove. I knew ole Dennis would help stir things up.
We hit the water a little before sun up and started picking up a few trout right off .. spent most of the morning tossing back spikes and hand sized flounder. Finally about 9 we found a few decent sized fish for the box. I landed my first drum of the week ...... shy of slot but rounded out the slam anyway. Few minutes later Mr. Rouse nailed a small rock to put a little grand in the slam.
Two 15" trout and a 16" flounder didn't fill up the cooler but it sure was good to be on the water catching a few & chewin the fat with one of my favorite cousins! (We even hashed over a possible new product for Minn Kota)
This one is photo lite ..... The instamatic feature wasn't available when Dennis bought his bag phone back in the 70's.
(Yes blankity-blank papadave gave away the spot but it ain't that much of a secret )
Dennis had to scram around lunch time but he left a little luck with him. This little dinner special came off the pier here @ River's Edge this afternoon.
Outta here in the morning but September is on the way ..... Greg is ready for us and I suspect the fish will be too!
