Plum Gut

[live bait]

Arrived as early as I could & the tide was already moving, thought it would have been stronger with the full moon, but not so bad. The bass were in attendance & did not disappoint. First three drifts, three bass. I was only able to stay for about 1/2 of the tide, & a steady pick ended the morning with 8 bass. Most bass were shorts with only one over the slot & a 30 incher made it in the box for dinner. Whenever I'm done fishing in Plum Gut, between the boat traffic, the rip, & attention that must be paid to the bottom, I leave exhausted.

Thanks Mitch, I neglected to post on Tuesday when I went to the race & couldn't buy a fish.

Amen to that, and as a youngster, we'd do it at night!!! Talk about exhaustion!!

I get that John but the bold adventure’s and trips you go on, fish or not, are a big part of the awe
