July .2013 Flounder Bowl !

July 6th 2013
Unfortunately, the charter I had booked for the Flounder Bowl Tournament wasn't able to fish today because of the rescheduling. So my best friend Brandon Bartlett B, his girlfriend Amanda Greene and my girlfriend Jj Hensel we...nt out today to give it a try. We went out relatively late and it was a little choppy on the way out. Once we got out there we started live baiting. We got started and the water really calmed down. Brandon and I started live baiting and not long after the girls wanted to join in. We set them up and not long after that Amanda hooked and boated her first flounder; solid 4 pounder. JJ and her took turns with the rod. JJ then caught her largest flounder right under 5 lbs. The girls had a blast between the blow fish, rays, and flounder. We didn't think much of what we had as fare as weight for the tournament so went to put Amanda on her first cobia. Started looking and not fifteen minutes of looking we saw the first cobia. Amanda did a great job reeling in her first (nice size) cobia. Her and JJ traded off the fish. We were almost ready to come in and hooked up another cobia. We elected JJ next on the gaff. She gaffing it and brought it right in the boat. It was time to head in to the weigh in at Dare Marina. Weighed the fish and ended up winning 4th Place with 12.5 lbs for our three largest. JJ won the lady anglers with her fish right under 5 lbs. We caught our limit of flounder and cobia. It was an amazing day on the water!!
