Chip off the old block…

Today’s charter had to cancel at the last minute, I hope you get well soon Larry! With today being my day off from CT Outfitters as well, I figured it would be a great day to get my son out on the boat. I agreed to let him sleep in till 5 but that was it… It felt weird driving down to the boat in broad daylight!

The fog was pretty thick on the water, so we stayed local. We had a tide change around 8 or so, so things didn’t really start happening for a while. That gave us time to poke around and load up on big scup. The first spot we tried has been hot lately but we only managed one in the boat and dropped another. BJ had the first of the morning…

We hammered away at the reef for a while, but it just wasn’t happening, so we moved on… The next reef was much better. We fished in about 30 feet and were marking a decent pile of fish on the front side of the hill. We either hooked up or had hits on just about every drift for the rest of the morning. BJ ended up with a few nice fish as did I…
