Late Summer PORGIES on a fake crab lure!

This was the weekend after hurricane Erin passed to the east offshore so wind and waves were still a bit upset but surprisingly the water clarity was exceptional. Couldn't really fish the deeper stuff because of the wind so had to work the shallower spread out boulders. Seems the porgy (scup) fishing is at its peak right now, as they seemed to be at every spot I tried. The savage gear crab was doing an excellent job of culling out the big ones, just takes a little getting used to the bite on it. bucktail setup: Rod: modified shimano TMSX66M    • Cutting the last eye off a new fishing rod...   Reel: daiwa KGLT2000D-XH    • Daiwa Kage LT 2000D-XH unboxing   Mainline: Berkley x9 8lb. crystal https://amzn.to/38sLXjA (affiliate link) Leader: Yo-zuri Hybrid Mono 15lb. test: https://amzn.to/3MPlQnB (affiliate link) Lure(s): 1/2oz.
