Woke up to slight sw wind this morning and wondered how the water would be after yesterday's westerlies. Fortunately too dark at fist spot to tell too much about water color. I could see white on the trolling motor prop, so good enough.
A little choppy for topwater at this spot but me and dad were soon slinging trout on purple plastics. Fish came and went but chewed enough to box 15 or so, including some 18-20s.

Moved over a little deeper off the shell point when they quit and wailed on the smaller keepers for a spell.
Next reef looked good and the wind was laying but only got 4 or 5. Finished up at next reef (no limit, but the old man was itching to get in the AC) and cruising home at 9:30. Good times!

All purple chartreuse soft plastics and a few on Mirrodines. No looks on topwaters. Water was good but not great (best bite was early in fairly dirty water), bait mainly subsurface, a few slick popping. Saw a few shrimp popping, hooked one bite-size croaker in the eye (took the pep out him and didn't get a strike on a plain jighead when I threw him back out there) and some mullet.
Fish were really mixed in size, with half dozen throwbacks. I didn't know what was going to bite next, a 13 or a 19.
