June 15th -- Tim and Don McCorkel

Tim McCorkle (Naples, Fl) fished a 1/2 day with his brother Don McCorkle who was in from Albuquerque, New Mexico. We talked several times the day before about rescheduling the trip due to the forecasted weather. However, this was the only day they had available, so we "mustard it up" and blasted off. BAD IDEA!!!!! We got soaked to the bone, pelted with rain and managed only one Goliath Grouper in the short morning. We call the day short before the giant rain drops gave way to giant sparks. We still had to "fly" home in IMC (Instrument Meteorological Conditions) with visibilities well less that 1/4 mile in someplaces. You have to give these guys credit though for toughing it out. Tim, do not give up on the Park and 10,000 Islands fishery, it is truly is a special place. Next time, however, lets wait for a little sunshine!!
