Got up bright and early, about 4:30. I had slept maybe an hour since 2 PM of Tuesday. Hit the road by 5:20, grabbed a bite to eat and went by Perry's Bait and Tackle. Got 2 dozen live shrimp, hoped to catch a few black drum due to the reports I heard late last week.
Finally got parked and got a line in the water around 7.
Put out the shrimp for a while and just had little stuff pecking it, pinfish and whatnot. Enough annoying baitstealers for me to leave the shrimp in the livewell. Casted some Gulp for a few minutes with no takers. I saw some finger mullet swimming around so after a while I grabbed the cast net and netted a few, probably 15 all day. I'm sure if I had tried when we first got there to fill the livewell I could have.
Put them out on a Carolina rig for flounder, had a good bite but set the hook too early, I got half of the mullet back. A little while later this guy wasn't so lucky. My first ever flounder, 15". He's in the freezer, I'm saving him for my dad to fry whole.
Started feeling tired and it started getting hot with no breeze, so we headed back. Plan to head back in the morning, hope to hook into a few more flounder.
