Day started with me forgetting to set my clock. Robert got to my house and hooked to my boat and headed to pick up Lavon. He had got ice from church for the cooler, so I hopped in the boat to put it in the cooler. Oops I forgot it at my house. Well instead of a nice padded 96 qt seat I usually have , today will be a 48qt unpadded. So off we go. Pretty crowded at the ramp but not take long to get launched. . Pretty chilly ride out. We headed down towards rock island. . Beautiful day out there today. So we’re fishing and robert says “ so you think a banana peel will sink?” Lavon and I say in unison...”You brought bananas!!!” He asks why thats a problem. So we tell him. Then say we might as well go home ad the fish will not bite. We rib him some more and continue fishing. By after lunch all we had in the cooler was 4 flounder (2 Lavon) (2 me) and Robert zip. . We moved a lot all over the place and no fish anywhere. But it was a beautiful day so we really didn’t care. We finally found a few trout at 2:00 Lavon put 3 in the box and I caught 2 shorts. At three we called it a day and headed in. Was a great day on the water with good friends. Cant wait till next time. Oh and banana boy got skunked. . So maybe it is bad luck. Lol

Also for the first time I could not catch any pins all day. Water was 60-63 degrees.

Nice job on the flounders! The cooler temps might have pushed the trout back to the creeks for a while.

water was 66.5 -68.0 all day for us

Not great - fished south a good bit out of Econfina. 2 26" reds and 2 keeper trout - all in creek mouths.

Bit pretty good for a lil over an hr probably caught a dozen trout by 9 until the army of boats showed up.
