Sambo jig / tuna troll today

 Went for a quick sambo jig today and a bit of a sniff for tuna , went to 2 “sambo” spots and only found these ! Went hard on my 200 Calcutta and bayjigger rod though , no sambos to be found and no tuna before the perfect storm hit so ended up at the pub ! The cray madness is too much for me at the ramp I’ve decided too!

Murphy's Law strikes

Murphy's Law strikes again.

Were the ramps that bad Ryan? Was going to head out of Hillary's tomorrow and with the weather looking pretty peachy it will be even worse and I am not against hitting the river if it's going to be more enjoyable and the flatties should be firing in the heat.
