Fall Surf Outing Results
12-October-2019
14 members registered and fished for bragging rights. Full moon and a fall high tide made negotiating the beach a bit of a challenge. But the tide soon started to retreat and it wasn't long before fish were starting to be weighed in.
Patty Rucker amazed us all with a rainbow slam of Redfish, Bluefish, Whiting, and Black drum along with a nice spotted sea trout for good measure.
Barbara Anderson took top prize with a 22 inch, 3 pound 7 ounce, Redfish.
Jerry Eiserman won best fish story when what we assume was a passing whale, bent his rod holder in half before yanking the rod out to sea. If that wasn't enough of a story, he later snagged the same rod and reeled it back in. So all was not lost and offending whale escaped without further incident.
John Burns brought out his drone and took some aerial footage. Watch the video here.
