October 10, 2021
Crazy October weather we are having.! Rain for the most part of the past couple days. Our high temperature for today hit 77F. Winds are out of the NE currently at approximately 25mph. GALE WARNING in effect up until 3AM Monday. 60% of thundershowers throughout the day tomorrow as well.

Couple of Drum caught at the point this morning before the weather changed for the worse.

Obviously, no offshore boats went out today, however, 2 inshore boats braved the conditions early this morning. They had good trips with catches of Red Drum, Bluefish and Speckled Trout.
