Here is the long report.
We spent most of our time eating or on the beach. 2 of Tina's aunts made the trip and cooked almost all day every day. The food was Awesome. 1 day Tina's uncle came in and brought fish for Sushi. That was glorious feast.
We took a trip to Pensacola to visit some of Tina's relatives. We went Clam Digging and ended up with a 5 gallon bucket full of BIG clams. The kids caught over 100 Hermit crabs.
I fished for an hour one morning in the surf and caught a bunch of ladyfish on top while everyone else was standing on the beach chunking meat at em'. One guy came over when I was walking out and said "aren't you afraid of them sharks". I asked where he was from....."Ohio". I saw one big sting ray when i rented a yak and paddled out a few hundred yard to the end of the sandbar. She was about 3'-4' across. On the last night, we took Cameron down to an area off of the Ship Channel to release the hermit crabs at 10:30pm. I decided to grab a rod when we got out of the car, but didn't take and other tackle, just the Bone SS Jr. 2nd cast I hooked up and thought it was a small red, but no.....Hardhead. A few casts later I had a huge blowup that missed and the girls were ready to go.
Here are some pics for your enjoyment.
