Windy Birthdays


May 8, 2009-- Another windy, tough fishing day in Rockport. Ran 80 miles today for 2 quality redfish. Also caught several undersize reds but no trout. Fished with croakers, shrimp, cut mullet, menhaden and cut skip jack. Had 3 clients new to coast fishing. The three friends shared at least one thing in common--today May 8 was each of their birthdays. Being tipped off to the birthdays in advance I came prepared with party hats, horns and little birthday cakes complete with candles. We had a birthday party right after lunch in 35 miles per hour winds. Someone told me once that us guides aren't in the fishing business we're actually in the entertainment business. I hope the entertainment today made up somewhat for the lackluster fishing.
