Dad came into town, so we decided to load up the 10' plastic dingy and wet the lines like old times. Ran into a lot of gafftop, including one with a significant curve in the spine (pictured). I got to use my redfish tag for the first time in my life on a 29" red. Caught all the fish before 11 AM when the high tide was peaking. We brought shrimp from the bait stand, but caught everything on live mullet acquired with a cast net.

Good going out there. I sure wish my father liked to fish. Wow, that gafftop sure is messed up. Looks like someone stepped on it and threw it back in the water.
