St. Marks Refuge Creeks report:

Got a 5-4 redfish early on a frisky mudminnow (no culling!), then spent the rest of the day pulling in 18-22 inch trout that didn't care what came at them. Swimming jigs actually outperformed freelined minnows in the creeks that day. The slot trout were suicidal. Lost a gigantic (6+ lbs, I know what they look like, see the picture at Jerry's) wallowing trout on a saltwater bass assassin with a missed net attempt at boatside at 2pm. Glad nobody was around, cuz my rare cussing was at full throttle. It is REALLY hard to net your own fish out of a canoe.

Left early, but guessing I finished around 20th with a total under 9 pounds. Had to get home and mow the yard, cuz the wife said no winnings = chore time.

Hats off to the winners...I'D RATHER BE WADING!

Snatch and I finished tied for 8th with 10.1 lbs, but lost the tiebreaker by a few minutes so we ended up 9th. Tough day of fishing, but at least we made some scratch to pay for the trip.

Me and my partner Kneeknocker had a great day of red fishing! Caught so many reds it was sick, ended up weighing a 6.6 red but the trout were really tough. Could not catch a trout over 19'', but had a good time. Congrats to the winners!
NO FLUKE!!!
