Spent the weekend at the horse show. Walked at least 8 miles back and forth back and forth daily.
I intended to fish Saturday night but the couch and a beer sapped my motivation.
I resolved to motivate Sunday and was released from duty early so I hit the sand.
Checked out a new spot. When three test casts came in loaded with weeds I dplit.
Location number two looked clean but proved to be somewhat weedy as well. I decided to stick it out. Not too bad, maybe I have been spoiled lately.
Several baits in and I get a nice run. Straight pull and came in quick. Had it pegged as a small male bat right away. Didn't feel the need for a pic.
Soaked a few more baits and get another screamer. Felt weird. Straight pull, no slaps, but more of a rhythmic surging.
Landed it after a medium fight and found a nice bat hooked in the wingtip. The hook basically fell out when I pulled it.
Snapped a quick pic, then a wave came and washed her back in for a slime free release.
