Yesterday's salty excursion was pleasantly diverse with stiff NE wind factor not playing too hard in my inland choice of Ozello. Nice amount of string stretch/rod bend/wet net/ruler use/regulation check that kept me occupied throughout my full day of fun. Water depths did play a major factor with SKINNY conditions that presented itself @LOW tide with NE wind factor diminishing my playground. Kelp beds yielded mostly juvenile trout with my largest(20"?) that shook the hook @surface. Way more releases than keepers yesterday but that is par usual/OK. Ended the day w/1 redfish, 4 trout, 4 ladyfish(yes, fileted/spoon scraped they are good eats = try it). Unfamiliar with turtle soup/regulations/variety(needed some Louisiana audience onboard, lol), so he lived on after a belly-massage with my over-sized net mesh! Manatees and porpoises added their beautiful calm to the ambience of what the salt always seems to provide me. Enjoy the pics-
