Went out with my friend Sam today to Wiggins pass. They really really dredged the beach back but still got into the fish. Lots of ladyfish with a basic snook rig and live caught pilchards. Never fails for a great fishing spot!

Went over to the in-laws this weekend near Stuart and you know I had to get some early morning fishing in. Third cast with a top water lure and caught my first ever ladyfish. It was huge! Great success!
