We fished the creeks between the Econfina and Aucilla as best we could with the skinny water from 10 am til 2 pm with only a small trout and a bluefish to show for our efforts. This was somewhat expected because of the low tide, but it did give us a chance to look for good structure for the afternoon's high tide.
We were both using Gulps under CTs which killed them last fall. Grim tied on a gold spoon sometime around 2 pm and had his first red in the boat about 30 minutes later. This one was 22" so in the cooler he went
. I was stubborn and stayed with the Gulp/CT combo, but had to switch after the Reeler was bringing in his second 22" red about 30 minutes later 
.Within 15 minutes of putting the spoon on, I had my first and only red at the boat
. He was about 21" with 3 spots and we had our limit. This fish hit the bait 3 different times on 2 separate casts, very aggressive. By this time the water had warmed up to 66 and it was dead on high tide, about 4:30 pm.All the action was at the end of the day and with no action on the flats we didn't have much to do during the low tide, but seeing how I wasn't at work, we caught dinner, we had the place to ourselves and the weather was beautiful it is hard to ask for a better trip. Now we are just waiting for a few weeks more for the water to warm up and then we can hopefully fill up the low tide time out on the flats.
