We went fishing back at Cedar Key pier on Sat.
A/C was up ( as much as he hates it ) super early & was at my place ( a45 min drive ) at around 7:30am. I was pretty much ready to go when he got here which is a rare treat for him lol
After the 102mi truck ride & gettin super lucky with a parking spot almost right across from the pier, we got lines wet. Wellllll he did, I had 2 poles to rig before I would put one in the water……. Remember reading about a certain someone’s fishing pole magically goin flyin over the pier railing in a split second awhile back?????
We had some live shrimp we stopped & bought. Good thing too bc we didn’t catch but 1 tiny shrimp ( a shrimp shrimp, a shrimpette ) when cast netting for bait. We were given 2 small mullet for cut bait & we cut up a decent sized Whiting A/C caught for bait too. I caught a Guppy sized catfish which barely qualified as gettin the skunk off, and I caught my very first Bonnethead shark. It was a youngin about 18” long.
I got the new circle hook out without harming the little guy & he was released. Just Like Free Willy, except for much much much smaller. And as unbelievably retarded as that song Baby Shark is, I somehow couldn’t keep myself from singing it which had us both LOLing hysterically. The weather was outstanding even though fishing was slower than a Biden speech.
We still had a wonderful day & ended it as usual -with 2 lg chocolate milkshakes on the long ride back.
Here’s my shark pics.
Ask A/C where are all of his fish pics.
