Saturday was looking good up until 4:30 AM when we were about to leave the house for the ramp. My Dad & I were fishing the HAPL Tournament and had everything ready to go the night before. I turned on the car and and he said he didn't have his wading boots and walked back to the house. I jumped out remembering I had grabbed a pair and walked inside. Of course, I close the car door and when we return we are locked out of the now running truck just sitting in the driveway.
Completely upset at the entire situation now faced us, all rods and tackle locked safely inside the truck. I was very tempted to shatter the window to gain entry but that was not reasonable. I tried for an hour waiting on AAA to get there, I had 6-7 clothes hangers, an old rod blank that's now in pieces lol.
The AAA guy had the right tools and had the door opened in 2 minutes and was back on his way. We, were finally able to head to the launch now being 6:20 AM and another 20 minute drive in front of us.
We started our wade late due to the lock out and completely missed the bite. We moved into some other areas and managed to pick up 2-3 trout, one was lost at the boat and my Dad got a nice Flounder. We scratched around the rest of the morning working different areas to no avail.
I like these bull tides only for driving the Gator-Tail around. We didn't find a sand bar or oyster reef that stood in our way yesterday and believe me we hit them all
It was a fun day on the water minus the mishap in the morning good to get out with the old man and both get some fish.
