FISH and Wounded Warriors

F.I.S.H.
Fishermen in Support of Heroes

Wednesday May 5th, 2010

Well we did it! Took 10 Heroes out for the 4th Annual Wounded Warriors Hit the Pier Fishing Trip. Great Day of fishing was had by all. Thanks to my Board members and the volunteers Tim(NCPierman) Taramelli, Billy(Ice Creamman ) Manger, Bobby Parker and Billy Hobbs. Big thanks to Greg Ludlum owner of the Sea View Pier.

First thing in the morning when the Warriors got there at 0900 there was a significant mud/tide line that kept the blues and spanish away. A few mullet were being caught but the fishing was slow. With a high tide at 1400 the water noticably started clearing about 1200 and the blues started biting about 1245. For the day our 10 heroes caught app. 75 blues and kept 50, 7 mullet and kept 4, 3 spanish and kept 1. You can also toss in the caught but released pile a shark or two and several cow-nosed rays.

Here are a few pics of todays activities. Rod/reels/tackle packs and totes were donated for them young warriors and they now have there own fishing equipment.
