Redfish Rob, Beach Bum Bailey, Blackbeard & I went out to our honey hole for Black Drum. Boat ran great, tough conditions yesterday. We arrived a tad late at the GYB and we were pressed for time to make the tide change. We launched and headed out around 10AM. After 30min we had our first hookup. I caught a nice 39" Black Drum that went a good 34lbs. Redfish Rob had a nice hookup and also boated a 38" Black Drum. Most of the action was during the outgoing tide once it went slack fishing dropped off. We spent some time rocking and rolling having some beers :cheers:. Bailey had a good hookup but somehow the braid got cut down in the rocks. I had to get back to Houston so we called it but good to get some slime back on the Robalo :D
