Spotted Weakfish caught deep sea jigging at 6616 Blythe Island Hwy

The boat gently rocks as we cast our lines. Sunlight glimmers on the water. A spotted weakfish tugs at the bait. The rod bends. We reel in slowly. The fish breaks the surface. Its silver scales shimmer. We net it carefully. It's a good size. We admire its beauty. The fish goes in the cooler. We reset our lines. The day is young. More fish await. The breeze carries the scent of salt. Seagulls cry overhead. Another day of fishing begins.
