Default RE: Last night 07.02.08

Thats why I put in the post that the big fish was 2:11(2 pounds, 11 ounces), which is theaverage fish over here.Not sure how longhe was but I haveno reason to trick people into thinking its any bigger than it is. Its just hard to get good pics of flounder at night,but theend of the gig with the white side turned out is pretty good. Something different than the normal kill pic on the bow.

We did get into some clearer water later into the night after the tide rose some, and I can see that by using the above water lights that I've improved my area of vision by several feet. I was glad to see that the above water lights didn't seem to affect the sheephead and mullet negatively. Although we didn't stick any sheephead, as they were all around 12", they did not flare from the light and just stood there ground.

The trolling motor worked good getting us from one area to another when we only had to go 50 yards or so. Most of the night, because of the visibility, the water was too shallow to put the motor in the water.

Again, its just nice to be able to post to a flounder gigging forum and avoid the fishing/catching arguement that seems to follow when you post gigging reports on a fishing forum.
