Went out around the house last night after work w/ some finger mullet. I actually stuck too my plan this time and headed straight to a marsh bank I had in mind. I've had success here before at a higher tide so I gave it another shot. 30 minutes went by without any action then I threw a mullet right off a point in the bank. I'm not sure the mullet even made it to the bottom before the line started pulling and the drag started peeling. This was my first fish over 12"s on a new Penn Fierce 2000 that I bought w/ trout in mind so it was a very fun fight. Another 22" drum hit in the same spot about 20 minutes later. Only had one more bite in the next hour so I came in. Had fresh fish earlier in the week so both these fellas are still out there.
