Wanted to get drummy and i figured the wind would add a sketchy but exciting bite on the water ....
on the paddle over i was getting hit with wave after wave after wave it felt like a BTB day...
finally anchored up and threw out some lines...today i was trying out my new baby got it for $40 with a rod holds about 300 yards of 20lb test...
the first 7 fish were on the new rod and reel =) i was very excited
a dead mullet came floating by so i picked it up cut some chunks and threw out a piece
about 5 minutes later my ugly stick gets SLAMMED SLAMMED SLAMMED it had full drag on and was just screaching i backed it off a bit and it took off like a freight train i tried to slow it down burned the hell out of my thumb....
after a back in forth for about 30 minutes the LONGEST battle by far with a baffin beast all my other rods were on with drum by the way i thought i finally had it tired and put on some drag so i could bring him up to the kayak left like pulling a log through the mud....then it used one last run and *Snap*....
=*(...
so after i collected myself and convinced myself the tears were really water from the waves i reeled in my other lines and this double made me feel a bit better...
and this one just made me laugh =)
the reds are moving around baffin...if im not mistaken a new state record was taken from baffin a couple weeks ago..60" bull red...
saw a couple of these little guys
lightning showed up fast! so i hauled it back to the truck with 25mph winds and waves to match it was a typical night but hey if you wanna catch drum then you gatta risk it to get the biscuit
ended the night with 38 keeper Drum 1 redfish and 25 for kayak wars
Now for the title of the post...when i got there this guy was telling me i was crazy for going out for just "some" drum and was convinced he would outfish me....when i paddled back
Hater: I already got 4 boss!
A/T: I got my limit!
Hater: thats it? you could have got that here!
A/T: Thats why im going home and your still here? i had 38 on the night
Hater: whaaattt!?!?!?! |
