Default Fought The Wind and Won

Unloaded at the first spot spent a couple of hours there sloshing around in the wind and ended up with 6 of the smaller ones so we opted to load up the boat and try the next hole which was better for the wind. We ventured out a little farther than what we normally do and found some awesome ground with lots of structure and it wasn't long before the box was full. Turned out better than I thought for a 15-20 knot northwest wind.

Biggest 6 were all over 3 lbs.

I'm not sure where you go that makes it worth the drive to get them, but if you ever need another person, We haven't eaten fresh Flounder but one time this year and I want to say it was back in early April. Great job guys! With the price of fuel going down and your limits being filled, you can't beat that!

Yes, I run 4 wide angle,150 watt HPS with a 2000 watt Honda pushing them. As far as the water it wasn't anywhere near clear. It was just good enough that you could see fair in about a foot & half of water once the tidal movement subsided. Before that it was pure hell!!! :banghead
