Struck out. 2 hours this am, an hour at noon, 2 hours tonight. Nada. Schoolie payback it seems.

Got my first DEFINITIVE HIT last night but didn't hook up,:smash: but darn, it felt good. Fish had some weight to it too. Trying again tonight.

I think I have a run at the smallest fish, around 14" but no pic though.I'll try again tomorrow and this time I'll bring the camera!

Better tonight. 2 fish in the rocks. A little better size. I think the first was about 30-31" (although the perspective says less...the plug is 6.5"), the second about 28"........but I didn't check in case I was wrong ;)

Love that dog ,. still a fish licker ?

:uhuh:

Very nice Numbskull, at least someone is catching.

I'll post some pics once I upload them from the camera.

Hitting my spot again tomorrow am.

Nice fish George!

Join the club. I've never started the season off with 3 skunkings in a row. At least last night, my fishing partner caught a couple fish. I had 2 on that I fought for a few seconds before they got themselves freed. I guess I'll blame it on the crushed barbs rather than my own ineptitude.
Not sure when I'll make it out again, but I'll keep giving it a try until I land one.

Having never entered a tournament like this before, I learned that taking a one handed picture of a thrashing schoolie in chest deep water in the middle of the night is a bit of a challenge.:uhuh:

I forgot to add, I said f'it after awhile. The cause is why I entered anyway. I think we CT guys have an unfair advantage this early, anyway.

Wish I had that problem - I haven't been able to get out :smash:

You have more fish - we have better sKiLz :buds::devil2:

Oh, it's on now :uhuh: Off to find a waterproof camera. :jump1::grins:

:rotf2:

I sent in a check. I will not be fishing so late send shouldn't matter.

Clammer,I got pics,need wife to post them maby tonight.If not will see you in am.I know you can.

Hit the bay this mourning,not much love.

Next time I get out, I officially dedicate the skunking to you John. Afterall misery loves company!
