I was still on Capt. Tony's boat today and it was a blessing in disguise. I had Rodney Crosby with his 3 boys. Cade and Cooper were twin 6 year olds and Cole was 9. These kids love to fish. They were excellent on the boat. We decided to fish shell first and we had a lot of break offs. I think Tony tied leaders for 2 hours straight. Our first couple of stops brought us 9 solid fish, mostly drum and the we headed to one of my favorite high water spots for the afternoon redfish bite. After a couple of anchors, we found 6 big reds and a few more drum. I think Cole wanted to mount every redfish he caught. These kids did better fighting fish than a lot of my adult clients. I was very impressed with their fishing ability. Dad was very patient with them and their teamwork paid off bigtime for them. The total catch today was 8 sheepshead, 4 drum and 6 big reds. Way to go kids!!!
