Today my fishing buddies were the Coppola Family Eric, Michelle, Sarah, Eric's father Ron and and Ron's girlfriend Lorraine. The plan for today was to catch enough fish to take home this afternoon to cook up for the Independence Day celebration later in the evening.
    We procured some pogies for slow trolling after running down the beach and finding a school  and after one toss of the net the live well was loaded and we were on our way.
    8A was chosen for our quest of fish with the kings being pretty consistent and hopefully a shot at a cobia as well. We fished until about 1 PM and the kingfish bite was a little slow but steady and we were able to get today's mission accomplished and get back and cleaned up in time to enjoy the Independence Day festivities.
   Another great day with good weather and a fun loving family and a few good tasting guest invited to dinner.   

Final tally for the day:
8 Kingfish for dinner
1 Bonito for bottom bait.
