An excellent fishing trip on 20 July 2019. We stayed at the Aspinwald Motel only 4 miles from the dock. Arose at 6 am, had breakfast had breakfast as the diner next door. Captain Fred was an excellent guide and handled all the dirty work. The Shady Lady was clean and comfortable for the 5 of us. Mary had had filled a huge cooler with sandwiches and Gatorade so we weer well fed and hydrated.

We took turns reeling them in. Mike and I were reeling at the same time and couldn't land them so we passed off to Paul and Josh. When they got them close to the boat, it was seen they they were tangled together. Captain Fred was able to land them both. Cory caught the largest one, 38 inches at 22 pounds.
