Fished surfcity pier Monday night. It rained for most of the day. Caught alot of very small grey trout. Very small Va. Mullet. A few small spot. There was a young fellow drum fishing who lost a large shark. Now folks, here is a piece of advise. Do with it as you will. When a wooden pier is wet,Don't wear shoes with a smooth sole. I get a run on my drum rod and I am about 4 steps away, at step 2 both my feet suddenly appeared in my vision. I hit the pier flat on my back. At this point I still want to get to my rod but can't. To much pain and no air in my lungs. Fish spits the bait. After a bit I got up trying to act like all is cool. Checked my bait and the spot head was crushed. Fished 2 more hours till the Sharp Nose sharks moved in. Hope Tuesday has better results.
On sudaynight while fishing on J.R. We watched a house burn on the far southend of the island. Had the night sky all lite up. Sad to see someone loss a beach house.
