Shoe on the other foot (08-01)
« on: August 02, 2015, 12:33:26 AM »
It was finally my turn to play sand hand and let Binh reel something in.



Squish was the vait of choice for the SNGF. Mack served up a doughnut hole. Waves were moderate. Kelp and eel grass was effing outrageous!!

Lots went wrong for me:

Parking sucked
Left my fishing license at home
Reeled in the biggest clump of eel grass and kelp so far this year... twice!!
Back-lashed hardcore on the braid twice.
Dropped my reel on the sand.
Skunked.

Time on the sand...

I've started "tipping" the cut fish with a squish head.

If Poseidon would mow the bleeding lawn maybe I'll see how it works.

The lawn has been mowed. You are just there raking up the mess.

The last wad I got caught in was so big I couldn't drag it out of the wash.

At least Binh got one out of the night but sounds like Mike had a far worse night than me. Dropping your reel in the sand is a trip killer.

I did want a rake at one point to rip those damn grassballs apart

Man, it looks like it wasn't your day Mike.

Congrats Binh. Keep it rolling!

Probably had an eel grass mesh hat.
