Fished with first time guest Marlin and his family. Started the day at 6:30 and enjoyed a cool overcast morning with light southeast/east wind. I wanted the kids to get some fish early to wake them up, so we got to HP rigs out and started catching. Around 8:15 we decided to check out the slab bite where I marked some good fish on a ridge. It wasn't long and fish on! Shortly after the slab bite took off baby fry threadfin started soaring through the air for their lives. We caught fish on small plastics, slabs/flies, and quasimodo. They stayed up boiling the water for about 30 minutes and then we had to return to electronics to stay on them. I had a great time watching the two kids battle it out for the most fish caught. We ended the day with a swim and lunch while I cleaned the fish. Fish caught in 9-23 ft of water. They are still chasing small bait so downsizing is a must. We tried throwing a 3.5" sassy and they would hit but not take, but they would take a 2" fluke. Ended up cleaning 64 and released quite of few unders. Water temp 84-86.5
