Froggy Morning

Wet the skiff at 5:15am this morning in clear skies. Made it 1/2 way out and got rolled up by the fog. No gps makes it pretty scary. The horns were blasting all over the bay. We putzed along and found some schools and were hooking up on small schoolies. I was getting stressed that we were in the main channel and I decided to press on a little more and anchor in shallow water. We did that for a 1/2 hour and few other small boats passed by us. A few friendly toots of the horn and friendly exchanges and they were gone in seconds. You could here everyone talking like they were right next to you. Then the wind picked up around 6:45 and bingo we could see again! We weren't even close to where I thought we should have been. We were outside of Clark's not Saquish. We did find a couple more schools that were attacking our top water plugs with zest. No keepers but plenty of action. Easier ride back to the landing. Weird morning though. I need to get a handheld GPS. It would have made a huge difference. The compass isn't enough.
