We started fishing at about 9:00 and by 11:00 the winds were 20+mph.  As Gnwdad said the tides were off the charts and there were 8-10 footers breaking on the beaches on the gulf side and water was starting to cover some of the lower lying parking lots.  I know what he means by the rough conditions because we were in a jon boat.  Maybe it wasn't the smartest move to go when under a small craft advisory, but they were feeding none the less.  We had our limit by 12:45 and the boat on the trailer by 1:30.

Comparison biggest/smallest (22"-5.2lbs.) (13"-1.2lbs.)

3 biggest of the night (120 qt. cooler there on)

We also counted some over 50 small ones.  At least we know that there are some left for seed!!!

Majority of the small ones that I saw were between 4"-6" range with a few that were border liners.

Thanks guys, if everything goes as planned I hope to have some pictures of another mess after tomorrow night.  If I get time I will try to throw in a couple of action shots if the weather cooperates.
