Water temp mid eighties
We took the Nan Z out to try and catch a grouper sandwich, but to no avail.
We watched a huge lighting storm from the deck Monday night and wondered if we would be able to go.
Tuesday morning looked better, so we headed out to a ledge that has produced nice grouper in the past. It was south from Mashes about 22 miles and in 55 feet of water.
We fished all of our humps that have produced there in the past and could not hook up on a grouper. Only grunts and black sea bass were interested and they did not jump on the hook easily.
So, knowing that their were afternoon t-storms predicted, we headed back in around noon. About 20 miles out we hit a log in the water. Slowing down and realizing we didn't do any harm, we kept heading in.
As we viewed the big thunderstorm brewing at Mashes, I was wishing I had a 150HP under my saddle, but the 115 Yamaha was flogged and going 37 mph.
We arrived just in time to view this coming.
