Went to Florida Keys and Biscayne Bay for my B day

Day I got there light 5mph SW wind and perfect. Storm rolled
through and dumped 2 inches of cold rain in 2 hours. After that
the wind started HOWLING 25 mph with gusts 35 out of the hard
east. Need less to say, the fish had lockjaw. I went out with a
guide We traveled high and low looking for active fish. Tried
every kind of bait. in 8 hours of fishing I caught one tiny jack
fish. Did not see one bone fish or permit. They all just went
off shore I guess. Guide had pics on his site of 10 bonefish a
couple 10-20 lbs permit, 10 or so big snook and a few guys
caught a 30 inch tarpon a day right up until my trip and SUCK
CITY!
Hell, I could not even catch one single mangrove snapper off the
pier with live or dead shrimp. Ended up snagging a parrot fish
and catching some strange little tiny snapper in 20 hours of
fishing.
Still had fun with my fam who went with me. Very disappointed I
caught not one game fish. It is my curse. I have told yall
before, if I plan a trip, something will ruin it. Cold front,
rain, very high pressure. Hell I went to Colorado to fish for
trout and there was a blizzard IN JUNE! I shot you not.

Like they say Jipped, a bad day of fishing is still better than
a good day at work.
Glad you got away but sorry it wasn't a high fish count trip.
