Got to the pier around 11pm, set up my lantern to sabiki some greenbacks and thus using tiny greenback pieces for pinfish. caught a 5 inch mango snapper. let it go and scurried to get my light rods and started cutting the greenies in half. caught a 12 seatrout and a dogfish, all let go. bite died down and went to sleep.
slept through the sunrise and missed the big grouper bite, scooter got a keeper that day. messin around with my spoons caught one keeper mackeral. met jack and started freelinin' pins got slammed with a short first pin out. tide was really slow that day. everyone on the pier caught a grouper, I just hope that all were let go because they were all shorts.
saw some guy nail two shorts within a 30 minute time frame, tried to tell him they were too short, but he didn't speak english and he didn't listen to his female translator either. some couple thanked me for trying to do something about his illegal activities. I didn't actually see him put them in his cooler but told me they did, I don't know why they didn't call somebody about it.
overall it was an eventful day, caught all the fish I wanted to catch, just couldn't take anything home but one mackeral. but it was good times. I'll miss skyway,probably be another year before I can get out there again
