: Harbor Quickie 9/15
: jrodda September 15, 2023, 03:18:27 PM
Didn't really even wanna get of bed this morning, but everything was ready to go so I made the most of it. Quick harbor trip 0700-1030.

Tide was ripping toward the front of the harbor. Picked off my skunk buster off a dock with a good ol' scampy.

The morning breeze was not being kind to me as far as drift directions. Had to do a ton of tiller correcting and hardly any drifting parallel to docks made dock flipping frustrating. I put out a double dropshot as well with a banana peel strip and squid tentacles on #10 hooks. Hoped for mullet and/or white, shiner, black perch, gobies, etc.

Meandered around scouting, found a big sandy harbor cul de sac. Tossed a KM through it, the loligo got bit.

Time ran out with just the 2 to hand. Couple short bites. Still seeing a little surface action between the mullet and the juvie WSB. I should either get a trolling motor or a float tube to do the harbor right. Or just go back to trolling it.

Well, that's two more than we caught.  I wish NPH wasn't so far

Nice "Quickie" Jeremy!  At Koga's age, the term can mean up to 12 agonizing hours.  lol

 I would imagine any kind of breeze would push your boat around pretty quick, at least you got 2 in a short window ;)  8)
