Met my friend Roberto and we ran out Alligator Ally to the mid region.  We ran 4 miles in the boat and started.  Roberto caught a Pea on the first cast and soon we were both catching them.  At a ledge drop off we started picking up black bass on plastics.  If you threw back into the pad fields you were constantly getting hit by exotics.  We lost as many as we caught on the pad stems.  The action slowed around 9:00 and picked up again when we moved to another location.  I will try to post some pics but I’m not real good at it.

looks like a good day!

It was a huge mixed bag.  Lost a big mud fish that wrapped around the trolling motor.

Love the Glades! Just being out there is a win. Nice mixed bag btw!

Loved fishing the glades when I grew up down there. 
Moved to central Florida in 84 so a lot of the exotics weren’t established yet.  We did catch Oscar’s some back then.  100 fish days were common the right time of year.

A friend of mine just had a 150 day out there.  I don’t stay out there long enough for that four hours and I’m done.
