Got a text from Pinoyfisher yesterday wanting to know if I was up for some batting before the storm hit......WHY NOT!!!

Got to the stomping grounds about an hour before sunset and 10 minutes before jwells, had one line out and sent another to join it as Jimmy was setting up, well 10 minutes later second rod in goes bendo and after a quick battle I slid this little 24" on the sand! Maybe a good start to the night?



Carlsbadman and his family came down to join the fun, I rebaited and sent it back out and not five minutes later the other rod goes bendo!!! Better fight and she couldn't decide which way to go! 15 minutes later and the first ones big sister slides up with a nice assist from Jimmy!  431/2"



Great fight! Not much going on after that, poor Mike was stuck at home taking care of the family and chomping at the bit trying to get out, about 8 we had a shower roll in so out came the rain gear....three nuts in rain gear huddled around a fire watching the lights from our rods and hoping for a strike! ::)

It went from a gentle sprinkle to an all out down pour and we all looked at each other trying to figure who was going to make the call :'(

I called Mike to see if he had an ETA, while I was talking to him Jimmy's rod go's full bendo! Sorry mike call you back in a minute!!! LOL

After a nice fight I helped Jimmy slide this 43 1/2" girl on the sand! (sorry about my crappy cell pic!)



After ten minutes trying not to drown we called it. I called Mike and he was on the island so I decided to stick and keep him company for the precious time he had left, unfortunately he wound up pulling a stripe, but we at least we were entertained by some moron teens playing with gasoline and the campfire down the way, it was all fun and games til the inevitable conclusion when the gas can caught fire and they tried to put it out by kicking it around the beach......yeah that works! :o

Good night with great peeps.
It's all Tom and Don's fault! They "hooked" me on mud marlins and sharks!
