took the wife and kids out to the beach "thunderstorm dodging" on Wednesday. The intent was to do some swimming, but the storms took the that plan and shortened it to about 20 minutes.

I did stop by the pier, and tooke a look-see around. Saw 3-4 spanish pulled in during the 15 minutes or so that I was there. Saw 1 guy pull one in, he jerked it up ot of the water, and smacked another guy on the head with it.

There was a large school of bait fish in one of the "corners" of the pier. Also, alot of dead bait all over the pier itself. You could hardly walk with out stepping on a squashed bait fish, it was everywhere...needless to say the aroma was just peachy !! Is this fairly typical for the fishing piers in the area ?? or an isolated event ?

Also, there was no one at the gate to collect my entrance fee...
