Went and fished the rock dam yesterday to fight the wind and it paid off. We put in at around 9:30, but right as we got to the dam, the wind kicked up to around 20. We fought that for 20 min and then decided to take shelter on the other side of the rocks.
That was all it took. Our first 3 reds were all over 10 pounds and had a few drum mixed in, all also over 10 pounds. One drum even came came in at 18 pounds.....on 8 lb test....fun stuff.
After the tide changed and started moving around 1pm, some smaller reds and specks started hitting and we were able to get some good ones for the table. Had the drum and some of the reds on dead shrimp and some reds and all of the trout on soft baits on a jig head. Overall a good day.
