We always seem to spend quite a bit of time fishing while on our beach vacation and this one has been no different! Our first day on the beach fishing Frankie caught a big one. It took him about 20 minutes to bring the big one up on shore and then we realized it wasn't even something we could eat... it was a Stingray (a giant one)!! We did catch some small whiting on the beach that day too but nothing big enough worth keeping. What was really fun were the Heron that were hanging out around us on the beach while we were fishing. They were waiting and hoping we would through them some of our bait which we did every now and then and we even tossed them a couple of our small catches... it was awesome to be able to feed such a big bird so close up! The next day we went out on a fishing trip with a guide.... and about 5 minutes into the trip his motor stopped working which put a quick end to deep sea fishing. We did still fish for a while close to the docks and caught a couple red fish, sheep-head, a black drum fish and a flounder. Frankie and my dad went out on another 8 hour trip the following day and brought home some more red fish and a sheep-head. Finally we had enough fish for a fish fry dinner and it was oh so yummy, nothing beats fresh fish!
