    Almost that time of year!!!!

    OK ! Captain New did it right for us ! After fishing in the morning, and getting quite a bit of spec, we had 5 net pulls. We eliminated the game fish, the croakers and other undesirables, including a most amazing ray collection. One massive butterfly ray. What we kept was: 2 cutlass fish (...
