Beautiful weather replaced yesterday's crap fest paving the way for a fine time hop scotching up the beach. As for production the hatch level didn't show much change but a good time was had by all. Lots of bites and plenty of yankin' and crankin' entertained and satisfied our fishing drive. A finale stint in an old seabass honey hole sealed the day's success. Idyllic and stunning in beauty again the catching wasn't the highlight. Camaraderie and appreciation for all things good most certainly was.
