Reel McCoy II Thurs. Aug 30th report
« on: August 30, 2012, 08:14:57 PM »
Started out today drifting Ambrose by bouy 5, landed over 20 shorts and a nice sea bass.  When the tide started to rip made a move out to a hump by the entrance to the channel. Glad I did,  5 drifts 5 keepers.  Had lunch and decided to go try for some sea bass SE of Scotland.  Put out a dead stick sea bass rig with spearing and squid and dropped my still baited bucktail rig to the bottom, two bounces and I hooked into a nice 20" fluke which I quickly released.  Put that rod away and concentrated on landing some sea bass, mostly shorts but I did manage another keeper CB and another 20" fluke that hit the bottom hook and I was able to swing him into the boat for a quick release.  Great day out there.  My two largest fish that I kept were 5.5 and 5.0 lbs, plus a 20", 19" and 18".
Back at it on Saturday.

Its better to sit in a boat and think about God, than to sit in a church and think about fishing.
