Was on the water at 0800 hrs. The rest of the guys were already on the water. Partly sunny. Ominous skies overhead. There was a passing thunderstorm in the afternoon.
Saw Grady and surfdog fishing at the pier. I went to the Inner Wall and jigged for flounder. I later met Moc, Chimo, and Shield at the Inner Wall after they fished the Outer Wall three miles away where Yakfish and Pinch were diving/fishing.
In the afternoon, Moc, Surfdog and Shield went back in, packed up and had lunch. After lunch, I think they went to Roosevelt Inlet. I stayed at the Inner Wall (Didn't want to eat because I wanted to fish). I was the only yaker fishing at the Inner Wall and got caught in a thunderstorm. I was soaked, but I continued to fish. It was partly sunny the rest of the pm, but then the wind picked up with 1-2' chops. I had to battle the headwind to get in, on a wet ride.
Anyway, here's what I caught: 1 keeper flounder (19"), 1 short flounder (15"), a sting ray, over a dozen croakers, a couple toads and this mystery fish (I don't know what it was, but maybe someone can identify it. It's the smaller fish next to the croaker in the pic). The ray gave me a pretty good ride. When I pulled it yak side, I saw the tail was missing, so I figured it was safe to take off the hook (ha, ha, ..... I wanted my lure back).
Don't know what the others caught, but Moc caught an 18" flounder and Shield caught a shark at the Inner Wall. Hey, if you two guys want pics of yourselves (I have more), sent me your email.
Always fun to fish at M&Gs. Thanks for coordinating it, surfdog.
