I fished yesterday afternoon and the wind had picked up making fishing very diffucult for my guests, David Jones, his kids Sam, Melissa, and Keith who also had along with them their Uncle Dave. The weather was actually very nice, sunny with just a few clouds, but very breezy. We hit Jolly River, fishing float rigs with live shrimp and soon found that trying to toss the wind-catching rigs to the grass line was very tough. But the anglers persevered and we fished on! Melissa was the first to hook up and reeled in a hungry Seatrout. Later at a runout, Uncle Dave found another Seatrout, but the real bites were few and far between. Sam found a Snapper near the logs of Tiger Island but although we were finally sheltered from the wind, the fish just weren't cooperating. The good news is that all of the anglers casting improved over the course of the trip and some new skills were picked up, and the family got to get out on the water together, making the fishing trip a success in some ways.
