Good bye Gulf Shores

Well into packing now - spent a couple hours on the beach though as the sun came out and into a cloudless sky. The beach patrol police (additions to the life guards) stopped by on their 4 wheeler to ask if  "YOU GUYS STILL HERE?" They were super friendly and when they found out we fished told about patrolling the fishing pier yesterday and seeing 3 rods get broken from guys trying to reel in Spanish Mackerel. WE know there was a school of huge fish in the area as a new state record for them was caught on Friday - 68 pounds and about 5' long - and they are tough!  See below for the picture of the fish
Anyhow, will get the rest of our stuff packed and into the van today so that we can leave at a decent hour tomorrow..

Here's a picture of the 68# Spanish Mackerel caught by the kid in the yellow shirt
