Left the dock a little later in the morning due to the wind and it paid off. Headed out and arrived at our first drop and quickly set up the spot-lock. Had some bites and got one nice keeper at the first spot, but the spineys moved in and smothered us.
Made a couple adjustments in the same area but to no avail. Moved a tick south to some other grounds I really like and it paid off. Had fish nearly right away and a steady pick of keepers and shorts most of the afternoon. Dogfish in the mix as well...but not covered up.
My daughter Avery wound up catching the largest tog on the day...4.5 lbs with an assist from me. She couldnt reel it up! Fought tooth and nail the whole way up. We wound up with 7 nice keepers and a load of throwbacks.
Overall a beautiful day out on the water with my daughter.

Absolutely awesome Capt!!!!! Love it when the kids get into the action. So much better when they get the hang of that Tog bite. Great job Avery!!! Enjoy your dinner.

Yep...she got a hang of it on Saturday. She caught a bunch of cookie cutter throwbacks as well throughout. Now If I can get her to help clean up a bit more...lol.
