Friday I prefished the tourney with Mike Kogan from the Jax forum. We hit Alligator harbor early. I caught a couple decent reds on topwater, but the bite there was slow. We made a move and went back to Ochlocknee. Fishing the tail end of the outgoing and the start of incoming, again with no boat traffic, we did very well again on large trout and reds. I ended up with a 27" red, a 23" trout, and a 13" flounder. This gave me a 63" slam for the day.
Saturday I hit the water with what I thought was a sound gameplan. I paddled out to the bay again and started catching small trout. That was pretty much my theme for the rest of the day though. Small reds, small trout, and small flounder. My biggest for the day were 19", 19", and 13" respectively. A small slam of 51" was nowhere near close enough for the tourney. Overall, it was a great week of fishing and some good times with friends.
Three great days and my read is that you did "ok". On Sat I caught a 24" trout at 8AM and had to immediately leave that spot to hunt other fish. Just ain't right. Caught an 18" flounder. Ended up with a 62" slam, fussing because I couldn't break 20" on redfish. One more inch would have won the slam. But I caught 15 redfish between 16 and 20", and I'm not jumping for joy?
