Gills/Blackwater report 7-23-13

[lund1]

I fished for the first time this morning in my new bay boat.....man, what a difference a cc makes! Absolutely love that new boat smell.

Found some nice alewives last night and worked the mouth of Gills today...caught 5 between 6am and 8:30am....biggest went 32". Thats a big day for me! water was 86, fish were mostly hanging around the bottom at 40' and coming up fast to hit downlines at 30'....never showed 'em a flatline....all down rods. Lots of boats around...mostly trolling artificial with big motors.....great morning with my 15 year old son and 3 of his buddies....not the time to get skunked....all released healthy.

Nice report! Glad you put the kids on some nice fish and that's a great way to break in the new boat!
