My friend, Capt. Keith of Anticipation Charters, set up a trip with us for a few of his regular customers. After an early departure, we cruised up north and found some birds working in about 75 feet of water. The birds we scattered but the marks on the screen were all over the place. After about 5 minutes into the first drift, we had fish on. A steady pick of bass kept us busy for the first couple of hours into the trip. No keeper bass but we had our hands full with the schoolies. Around 0930 the bird flaked out as well as the bite.
After switching the gear over, we shot south to the same wreck we were on the previous trip that still had plenty of life. After a quick snag on the anchor, lines were dropped. Again it wasn't long before the fish started biting. We had a steady pick of fish for the rest of the trip. I bet we had 15-20 fish at 13 3/4 inches.
By the end of the trip, we tallied a shy dozen up to 6.5 pounds.
Leaving the house with out a camera, waiting on Capt. Keith for a few pictures.
