S.M. Mack Attack and Flatty Bonus
After what seems like years of duct pounding, a man needs a break and with the up coming
Hunting Giants 6 Tourney in the near future I figured why not wipe off the dust on the surf gear
and see if I still got it, its like riding a bike they say. Friday night I do a roll call and see who's
fishing and who's not, then throw out the idea of ditching the duct and heading to the beach for
a surf session. Surf Warriors for the day were Myself, Good buddy Khanh and Hai with the rest either
busy or already fishing "Boils". We decided to meet up @6 with prime tide conditions, a beautiful
sunrise and surprise of how many anglers were arriving, none like ive seen there before.
The morning started off kind of slow for me "nothing not even a bite" meanwhile Khanh & Hai slay the
Macks at a slow and steady pace, with tons of tiny chovies lining the shore everywhere and multiple airborne
mackerel throughout the morning, Finally on the board and skunk off with a slimy mack never smelled so good.
With everything looking perfect it was just a matter of luck and timing, mack, mack, salad, salad, mack mack,
SMACK and thump shake run,, oyeah this is the right kind, with Hai to the right of me I tell him it feels good
enjoying the fight. Being on the smaller size there wasn't much of a battle, but more of a exercise and with a quick
tide slide a beautiful baby butt comes in happy as can be with my kroc hanging out its mouth.
After a quick tape and measure by a fellow fisherman its a mighty size of 18", its no legal but just a refresher course
and hopefully a sign of many more in the future, if I am so lucky.
Tight Lines,
and see you at HG6,

Welcome back to the salt Alex!
That's a fine come-back fish during these tough times!
Heck .... last Sat I fished from 0600 to 0830 hrs and didn't even get a bump and again from from 0600 to 0930 hrs for only one bump on Sunday.
I believe you've not only dusted off your surf gear but have kept your skill level also.
I'll see you at HG-6! Be sure to say hello to me!
Thanx for the fish report with pic!
SP Dan <"))><

Great report Alex,
I guess I missed some threads due to fishing so much this weekend.
I'd love to see you pull your next DD striper from the surf.
