We didn't make it out to the marsh. First timers and need people to show us what the heck to do LOL. It was a great trip aside from the groups of drunks above us the first night. I think the biggest hurdle was knowing where to go, when, how, etc. We had never done anything like this before and this was actually our first trip to the coast since we moved here in 97.
We will definitely go again next year, but I don't think I can wait until next year. We managed to only lose a small eel that we caught, but it was probably stressed from the catch because none of us knew what it was and it was so small we couldn't get it off the rock until I came down with my little fingers.
My first catch before we walked out on the jetty, was a fish I need some help with. It's the first photo...have no idea what it was. My first catch at the end of the jetty was a file fish, then I got two Miller Blennies (I think that's what they are). A dozen Sgt. Majors before I started putting them back. Lots of peppermint...over 100. We were given a quarter size angler that is hiding in the quarantine tank somewhere. I also got roc anenome...almost got washed out to sea for that one. We didn't stay out too late...hubby's sprained ankle started swelling. Here are some pics...please help with the first one.
