My brother-in-law, an avid fisherman, visited us last week and we took a few days off to go fishing. We went fishing four days and the fishing was decent. We each caught a Pompano and about six or seven Spanish Mackerel each. But Tuesday was different.
We got to a local fishing pier early in the a.m. and the winds and temperature indicated we were in for a hard day. The winds were up to 35 miles and hour and the temperature had dropped considerably. However, at about 8:00 a.m. - after two hours of catching nothing to keep - we began to catch some fish. Strange as it was fisherman only three or four feet away and using the same bait and lures as we were caught zip. My wife joined us and she caught some fish, too. After three hours we caught our limit of Spanish Mackerel. Here is a picture of what we caught. View attachment 154961
Did you ever have a day when the fish gods were smiling at you and everything you did worked right but those around you could do nothing right?
