Tide last of incoming and first of outgoing
Water Temp: high sixties
We took the Nan Z out for a run as the seas quieted finally.
Decided to got out to Rotary Reef for a quick trip.
The fish were biting as soon as we anchored up and dropped down.
The Black Sea bass were biting on every cast. We kept a few for dinner and just enjoyed hooking them on light tackle.
Nancy was fishing under the boat wearing out the sea bass with shrimp. She dropped down with some cut bait and soon I heard her drag screaming.
She brought up a beautiful over slot Redfish.

We decided to give trolling a try. The last couple of years we have done well dragging stretch 25's around the rocks. We caught nothing trolling east, but each pass westbound had Nancy pulling in another gag. All of these were right at 22 inches which would be a keeper if we were allowed to put them in the icebox. But, the federal government have different ideas, and all were released.
We headed back in to Mashes Sands and stopped between the 7 and 8 marker and caught some sand trout and croakers to finish up a fish catching day!
