Got a permission slip from the Wife and Kids to miss the Southport 4th of July Parade, Just had to be back Home in time to see the Fireworks.
Called up couple of buddies and pulled a trip together at the last minute.
Lucked out and saw birds diving off Oak Island a little off-shore of the Hot Hole. We got on em quick and RAC filled up the net in a throw. We really were not expecting to even see any as bumpy as it was. SW Wind was kicking but thankfully it laid out Off-Shore.
Started right at the Tower this morning and picked up a couple of very nice Mahi in the 12-15 range right out the gate and then picked at the King Mackerel for a couple of hours. Glad we had the live pogies today cause they were what the fish were hitting the hardest. Will start looking a little harder for them for future Charter Trips.
Hit a couple of numbers on the bottom and picked up a nice assortment of bottom fish (Jumbo Pinkies and Triggers), then moved off another 10 miles and finished up the day on some very nice Red Grouper. Again the live pogies were the ticket for them also. Choppy ride home but another Great Summer Day with Friends on the pond.
