  Report:
  Jim and I were joined by Tom this morning fishing the mouth of the Shrewsbury. Knowing that we would arrive at the tide change and then have the ebb for the majority of the trip, the forecasted easterly winds would provide a decent drift. The winds never did blow from the east as we were greeted with northwest winds on the ebb and by early afternoon the wind had shifted to the southeast at the beginning of the flood. The wind vs. tide produced less than ideal conditions as we struggled all day, eventually boating @ 60-70 fluke. Tom landed all 3 of our keepers today on killies, while Jim and I stuck to fishing bucktails & Gulp. Tight Lines! TINKNOCKER
