Still looking for the first of 2019

So after reading Kam's report I was a little hesitant of going out, but with the storm blowing in later in the week I had to take my shot. I fished a spot I have never fished before at night. It looked promising with little waves and no salad. Not what I was expecting at all. The baits go into the water around 7:30pm and within a few minutes I get critters on the bait. This place is rocky with lots of bugs around, so I knew it would be like this all night. The temp wasn't too bad either, I was expecting it to be a lot colder. I get a nice tug on the line that felt like a small Leo, but when I got to shore I find out it's a nice size grumpy bass.
. The picture doesn't do this fish justice, it was a least 14 inches long and thick. Mike wasn't with me so, this fish got to live another day. 

I packed it up at 10:30pm, but will be back again to see if this place pans out for me in the future.

Tom and Steve let me in on the SKK.

Beats the skunk! Our luck will turn soon.

That fish looks way bigger than 14"

Glad to see you got out at least. Its going to be ugly for awhile.

Agreed.  That bass looks bigger than 14".  That looks like the SDK or KDS spot.

Mike texted the pic of Steve and his 7gill while I was on the sand. Brutal!

Good to see you got out and gave it a go.  You're correct, looks like some funky conditions for the next several days

Never entered my mind, but I approve.
