St Johns Day three

Another 7 pounder saved the day! I didn’t have a fish at 10:30 and went by a bed with a giant. As I turned the boat to set up to sight fish, I made a long cast with a canyon lures gitzit, and she ate it first cast. Then the pressure was on to fill out my limit. I found a few small keepers close by that were in 1 to 2 ft of water and were very aggressive. About 1:30, I found an aggressive 3lber. Ike was fishing just outside me and caught a couple small ones as I fished for the bigger one. Finally I hooked him, and after a couple strong runs, he jumped off! I never moved, and just kept fishing for him and 45 minutes later he bit, and I put him in the boat, a $10,000 fish! We just had burgers at the motorhome and TJ played with his friend, Ella, life can’t get much better than this!!!
