We got there and saw no macs. We caught 1. We grouper fished and dad caught 3 shorts and got rocked. Then we headed for the shallows and caught about 10 of the biggest ladyfish i have ever seen. They were between 4 and 6 lb. caught a couple more lizards and macs after that. We also by the last bathrooms saw something crashing the bait too far for us to catch. We think they were jacks and not bonito cause they werent flying out of the water. All an all a good day of fishin.

one of the ladyfish jeremy caught measured 27.5 inches to the fork. biggest ladyfish i've seen to date. we put it on an electronic scale but not sure about the accuracy. it read 7.32 lbs. i'm not sure if that is correct or not. either way it was a big ladyfish.

just calibrated the scale. it's right. also did the l x g x g / 800. 27.5 times 15 times 15 divided by 800 = 7.59 pounds again!

I was thinking about heading out sunday too, but checked the weather, not looking to good. cold front coming through saturday and Sunday North winds 20 to 25 knots. Seas 3 to 5 feet. Bay and inland waters choppy
