<p>Once we meet, we will shove off to one of my secret fishing spots in search of fish to put in the cooler. Once we've caught enough for the cooler we can set out for some fun fishing. I like to target Red drum and Rockfish as they pull like a freight train. If youre not interested in keeping fish we will move around and see just how many species we can catch!</p>
