Well went out with my uncle today with great expectations as Jason's catch yesterday sturded the juices. Got to Gillikins about 7:30 in the morning and already the lineup of some great anglers were lined up on the beach. We found a spot and set up. First in the water was a bunker chunk with 6oz of lead to hold bottom.
Next came mine the same setup. I did not see any hit but noticed my line sliding north and I know it was holding. Pulled it in and one skate on the beach. The guy next to us the same thing. 2 guys to our south brought in a small brown shark, we both looked at each other and just shook our heads.
We can see the way this day is going to go. It was getting boring so we decided to head south and as we did stopped to talk to Poppie to see if he was dong anything, nada. We headed to the inlet to see what was going on and it was all the`same. It was fun watching the boaters try to navigate the inlet especially with the 4 to 5' waves right down the middle. One guy launched his boat clear out of the water, this boat was a 27' century with twin engines. amazing.
Well, by this time it was getting close to the time we had to leave so we headed back north to Gillies again only to see guys stuck in the sand all over the place. Amazing. Even the guy from Lukeoil was stuck LOL. There were at least 25 guys lined up but no one was catching a darn thing.
What a day...
Happy Catching
