My afternoon trip was an inshore charter and we caught a good mixed bag: ( 10 pound redfish, 4 pound flounder, 3 sheepshead, and 6 sharks between 8-50 pounds).

6/3 Ocean was nice today and I got to run 2 reef trips with 2 very nice families.  First trip was not as much variety but good numbers and some large fish, started catching a bunch of high flying ladyfish, probably boated around 25-30 and lost many more with all of the jumping.  Also caught 3 bluefish, 2 flounder, couple of sea bass, and ended the trip fighting a 10ft lemon shark for an hour.
Second trip headed straight back out to the reef and wind picked up and seas got a little choppy, but was able to manage.  Good variety with : 8 flounder, 4 sharks, 3 black drum, 1 ladyfish and a sheepshead.
