Trip Summary
Got a late start Sunday afternoon... we were only going for a boat ride as we didn’t have much bait and no time to search for live bait yesterday afternoon. As we drove by one of my secret spots, I noticed the conditions were ideal to fish it. After baiting up, we tossed in our lines and waited for the bite to happen. I hooked Into a fish and handed the rod off to her. Bam, she reeled in a nice slot redfish. We wait it out for about 40 minutes until the next good bite happens. As she is beginning to set the hook, another rod goes down! I reeled in a slot redfish while her battle is getting underway. Afterwards, I reel in the extra lines so she doesn’t get tangled up. Several minutes pass before we see her fish next to the boat. It was a big red! The fish makes several hard runs before she can it in position for me to net him. As I dipped the landing net into the water, I grabbed the line and guided it into the net. He was a full sized 27” redfish! After a few pics, we released the smaller of the three slot reds. All in all, it was a win-win situation for us as we each love being on the water and fishing.
