Gulf Shores Pictures

Mom, Beth, Diane, Joan and Faith are having a very nice time in Gulf Shores. Diane sent these pictures last night. This is going make Nate want to join them something awful. But the rule is on THIS trip, No BOYS! sorry Nate.
Below is what mom caught right off the beach. She just walks out her condo back door, down the steps and she is ready to fish.

Joan just had to get in on the act and threw her pole out, it wasn't long before she got a bite.

Sure looks like it is giving her a good fight. And this is what she pulled in.

Nate would know exactly what kind of fish and mom probably knows, I think it is some kind of mackerel.
Yesterday started out in the low 40's here and the high was only 63 degrees, seeing them on the sugar white sands of Gulf Shores in the sunshine wearing swimsuits is like rubbing salt in the wound for all of us that have to stay home.

  2. First fish is a sheepshead, great fighting and great tasting (if you remember to cut out the red strip of meat off the back of the filet).

    The second fish is a ladyfish. Great fun to catch, leaps high in the air, great to cut up and use for bait, but no good to eat. If you can visualize eating mushy doo doo than you don't need to bother tasting ladyfish.
