It was definately tough. We were trailing Chris by 30 minutesor so. We did not see very many buffs. We saw quite a few gar, but most of them were only 18", so we passed on most of them and missed the rest. We ended up with 16 total, 4 buffs, 5 carp and 7 gar, and lots of misses. But we had a blast. I'm hoping that next year with the help of a generator and lots more light we will do even better.
