Typically, I avoid fishing on weekends to yield to the weekend-warriors, but my 'itch to fitch' yielded to what was forecasted to be only a 3-4 hour effort. The weather-vane was showing the forecasted EASTERLIESthat were promised!
Motivation still helped with my gameplan of l/l'g 12 rods. My favorite usher/attendant, Randy,
was there to welcome me this early Sunday morning. Didn't take too long to make the 1st rod bend during this early morning of full-moon influence. They were very cooperative for about 1.5 hours until the bite was almost non-existent except for a few.
About 9:45 is when the 15 mph Beasterlies showed up
Was fondly entertained by some 3-4# Ditch-Pickles that were released back into their habitat, Overall, a very pleasant quick-trip during the Florida post-spawn, tougher-bite. bath-water temps.

Ended up with a dozen to help supplement my future meals/gifting fish filets.
