👤 Cathythe weather on May 14 was brutal, like seriously windy and raining. didn’t even get out on the boat. just chilled at home, guess we need to wait for the weather to clear up some more. my tackle box is never too far though, can’t wait for sun!

👤 Ronman oh man, May 13th was wet! caught a few rain showers while fishing, but nothing big. tried to target the fluke again but only got the small ones. i swear they’re teasing me! used some fresh bunker but it was a struggle today. oh well, better luck next time!
