South Again Charters / 21 May 2012

You ever have one of those days, where everything just seems to go right? Thats what happened to us today. Amy, Conrad, Mark and Ben joined me for a 6 hour trip out of Shoreline today. We left shoreline at around 0630 and shot towards the Mass to catch bait. After making bait we quickly moved to an area that has been holding a lot of Kings and began trolling.

In no time we had 5 nice Kings in the box and a few large Spanish. Making a move back towards the Pass we had hopes of catching a few Redfish before going after the Flounder.... The Redfish bite was on FIRE, we had double hook ups, triple hook ups. It seemed like no matter what we dropped to the bottom resulted in a near 40" Redfish! After boating a dozen or so Bull Reds we decided to go to the FLounder hole and try to put some more Fish in the box.

We caught the rocks with only about 40 minutes of good tide left and were only able to catch two before the tide went slack and the bite shut off. We did how ever manage to land three Trigger Fish in the bay and a nearly legal Red Grouper. Today was another great day with an amazing crew. Thanks again to Mark and his crew for their business!

....................... See you out there

The kings were absolutely on fire. We caught ten and missed 6-7 more. I watched you and hotspots hook up one after another on the reds, but we didnt get a bite, which blew my mind. Normally i get them but something wasnt in our favor. We drifted the same areas, like everyone out there. Oh well glad you killed it. I was happy with the king bite for sure though.
