Total Fish/Sizes : 11 LMB up to 3’6”
Lures Used : Plastic worms, swim flukes

Fished from a little after sunrise till a little after 3. The water was too cold for a productive top water bite. Started fishing with worms, but the lyngbya (as described in an earlier fishing report) was so prevalent that a switch was made to weightless or small weight paddle tail flukes and worms. Boated 11 but missed several others as the wind with lighter tackle made it more difficult for me to determine that a fish had hit the bait. The new Jon boat worked fine and was able to launch it without getting wet even with the low water condition. 
 

As an aside- I used the email gate lock number to get in. Buy when I was leaving I discovered I had inadvertently deleted that message while on the water. It was late on Sunday and I didn't have the email with the lock number. Fortunately my declining memory recalled the working number. So to avoid this angst in the future when I am fishing alone I will make a screen shot of the email.
