Week In Review
This was a relatively slow week, with the weather playing a big part. Cloudy days made it difficult to spot fish, and the wind added to our woes. Permit were seen everywhere but refused flies and were extremely difficult to hook. Young Marshall S landed a beautiful Permit of 20 lbs using a live crab, and his Dad Josh broke one off. The Snook bite is on.
