9-6-10[#00ffff]
[/#00ffff]Today we were fishing with Eddie and James Burkhalten, Greg, Charlie, and Evan Robinson from Mint Hill,NC. and with them was Aaron Selberg from Matthews,NC.[#00ffff]
[/#00ffff]You have got to love it when a plan comes together, I know I do!!![#00ffff]
[/#00ffff]Remember I said in the last report about the Spanish Mackerel being a little farther out than I like on a 1/2 day trip.[#00ffff]
[/#00ffff]Well, I was heading out there this morning, but, the ENE winds had other plans for us.[#00ffff]
[/#00ffff]It got to “kicking” pretty good and we wern’t even two miles off the beach and had 12 more to go!!!.
With a couple already feeling a little questionable, I decided not to do it.[#00ffff]
[/#00ffff]I had told them at the dock before we left this morning that the Spanish Mackerel fishing had been slow lately at best, even some days producing nothing.[#00ffff]
[/#00ffff]I never mentioned what I had seen yesterday so as not to get their hopes up just in case what happened, happened.[#00ffff]
[/#00ffff]They were still happy to stay out and see if we could find something. So, we went searching!!![#00ffff]
[/#00ffff]I tried pretty much everywhere and not a bite. I was trolling towards the reef when Emmit Banks called me on the radio and told me the Spanish Mackerel were jumping between the pier and the condo’s.[#00ffff]
[/#00ffff]I had just left that area… But, just maybe I didn’t get close enough to shore!!! I turned and ran back to the area.[#00ffff]
[/#00ffff]Sure enough, 13 feet of water, on the beach in all the mullet was the key.[#00ffff]
[/#00ffff]We caught all they wanted, didn’t have to run out in rough water, stayed close to the beach where the NE winds had it slick flat, had a great morning of fishing with some great folks with the bonus of some catching, so I guess I can say that with a few modifications, a plan came together after all!!!
So, yes, I love it when a plan comes together!!![#00ffff]
[/#00ffff]Oh yeah, Thanks Emmit for the “heads up”, I’ll return the favor soon I hope!!!
FISH ON!!
