Got home from Daytona Beach late fathers' day so I didn't get to see dad so I took him out on the boat yesterday. We started out on the channell edges looking for bait to try jigging spoons. We didn't have much luck finding any schools. We ended up trying some of my usual community holes and caught good fish. The temp was about 94 at 6:30 and the water temp was 84-86 where we fished. I caught most of my fish on a Rapala DT 16 in the Parrot color. My dad actually caught some fish too. At one time I was sitting in 18' water and caught 3 keepers on 3 casts and it was cool. My best 3 might have been between 10 and 11 lbs. which I thought was pretty solid. I still don't have a camera so no pics but I loved spending an evening with Dad and glad to see his pole bent a few times and he had fun too.
