Shake down 3/28 St. Joe

Shake down 3/28 St. Joe

Cleared the “Joe” around 0830 and started setting lines heading toward the “wall”.  As far as shake-down go, it couldn’t have gone any smoother.  And to catch 10 Ho’s was the icing on the cake.  The best water was the inside 15’-20’.  The 1^st fish came on an ART29 ThinFin, next on a stop n go dodger/fly.  After the 3^rd and 4^th fish came on that same ThinFin we pulled the jointed Raps, the high divers w/ spoons and loaded up on rattling T/F’s, ½ oz. size, plus a 2 and a 3 color w/ a small green dolphin and an old orange BJ wobbler, which took two hits.  8 of the fish came on the ART’s.  Guys, don't be afraid to jack up the size of the trebles.

4 mono, 2 lead line 2 DR's,  2.3sog

Now the only thing that could have been better is that some of those a$$holes at the launch blocking the ramps while loading their boats.

Great first trip, hopefully one of many. Glad the boat ran well also.
