Fished Crystal River at the crack of dawn this morning. Fished the bars on the outgoing tide on the Bar Hopper with CaptAshlie Payeras-Howell. We got in some skinny stuff and caught a bunch of under slot reds, lost a big one at the boat , caught a pretty red with a bunch of spots, and cast the last few shrimp to catch a monster black drum.
Was a great half day trip! Thanks for a fun day Ashlie! 🤗🐟🎣 🎣🎣🎣🎣🎣🎣🎣🎣🎣🎣🎣🎣🎣🎣🎣
