1/1/17 January new years day fishing!

Got out to celebrate the new year fun fishing with my wife and dad.  We left early and headed back into the everglades to fish some of the creeks.  A couple days ago it was very tough over there, though with the wind settling down and muddiness clearing up slightly, I heard it had gotten better yesterday.  We had a fun morning we probably caught 18 fish or so.  A mix of redfish, black drum, snook, and sheepshead.  Not a red hot bite, but you caught one every 5 or 10 minutes, and sometimes got a rally of a few multiple fish.  The wind kicked up later in the morning we tried a few things offshore in the gulf, but not much luck, and headed home early for lunch!  I’m going out of town tomorrow and will be back the 8th, time for the yearly ski trip hopefully it won’t be too cold but I think that is wishful thinking!
