I caught 4 more yesterday on Fish Bites and Dead Shrimp.
I also landed a 22" keeper Redfish.
On a sad note, I lost my Boat Anchor close to an Island near the Boat Houses area by The Boat Hole.

That fish doesn't look ugly to me at all. Good color and not beat up. Perhaps it has been staying relatively shallow in clear water getting a sun tan while eating a good diet.
It sure must have given your fishing rod a tug or two. Congrats on the catch. |

Killer Fish!!!
How long is your boat and how does it handle the waves? I have been thinking about getting a flat bottom and taking it out in Baffin. |

| Looks like an ugly stick in your picture. If so, how appropriate, using an ugly to catch uglies. Nice job and thanks for the pictures. |

14ft Aluminum powered by a Johnson 8hp.
I only take it out with 10-15 mph winds.
Anything 20mph or more it gets pretty bumpy 
I am able to ride on 6" of water  |

I have a Ugly Stick Tiger that I landed this fellow on.
I also have an 8ft Ugly Stick that I caught the 40" two days ago.
My reels are an Abu Garcia 7000C3 and 6600 and tbey performed just great.
I took my Calcutta to see if I could have the fight of my life but no takers. |
