: Quick Exercise (5/8)

No boat today and my arm is hurting a bit after an early morning PT yesterday.  I decided to try and just pound some shoreline for a few hours to get my body moving a bit.

Really tough bite.  2 bass on the blade and 6 needlefish.  Well, only one needlefish made the flip onto the ice plant before biting my finger.

Worked 1 hour on the blade.  The next hour was just a swimmy for only a quick needlefish bite.  Went to a weedless weighted hook rig for a swimbait and looked awesome in the water, but not a bite.  Oh well.  Better than doing nothing.

12 days from now, I'll be in Belize!

Looks like a morning well spent. My buddy hit the beach in Newport this morning and the swell/weeds had him wishing he'd slept in.

Belize is coming on quick! Is the arm looking primed?

I'm a little nervous about my shoulder, but all I can do is keep excersizing, stretching, and icing it. I'm only bringing left hand gear, so I should be good unless a 100# tarpon grabs it. I'll be targeting cichlids, tarpon, snook, and cats in the river also. I just booked the local river guide. Also have a flats trip and a reef trip off Ambergris Caye too which could be a ton of new species for me.
