Unexpected catches at Rockport 10/25

[akammerman]

I tie a dropshot with a palomar knot for plastics, but I thought those were just for bass. Didn't think of using a smaller hook to target different species. And casting that dropshot in a bunch of rocks (like at Rockport) with a huge Gamakatsu hook (like I had rigged) just invites snag after snag. I'll have to try the dropshot with different hooks and presentations.

Thought it might be a rod holder, but thought the depth of the holder would get in the way of the reel. Now I'm understanding why I see some rods where the reel is attached pretty far up the rods!

So much to learn and practice. Not enough time and fishing trips!
