No Beach Skunks to be Found Around Here

I dusted off my old 7' two piece Ugly Stick fishing rod and tried my luck at the beach between surf sessions. I was able to bring in this lone blue crab using sand crabs for bait (although I was really fishing for flounder). We ended up letting it go since steaming one crab is not that filling (I would have kept it if I was able to find a few more of its buddies). And for the record, I did catch more than my fair share of ribbon grass - made it hard to tell if I had a crab on the line or not. There is a big beach nourishment project going on in Sandbridge and the grass was drifting down current of that operation - I'll take it though because I didn't catch the Seaskunk!!!
