Fishing was tough today.
Mild cold front came through with a rare early morning fog.
Maybe it “Spooked” the fish
Caught a nice Black Grouper………..

Excellent Day Today
2 Sailfish, Barracudas, Mackerels, Kingfish, a dolphin and a big Black Fin Tuna.
I took lots of pictures, but it works much better if I remember to put the memory chip in the camera.
Fortunately, the customers took a bunch too and they are going to send me some. Check back in a couple of days
I did manage to take one with my IPhone at the end of the day
