A unique website dedicated to fishing information from Florida's Northern Big Bend. This includes the area from the Econfina River west to the Apalachicola River
Fished the wash bar at the refuge this morning for about 1 1/2 hours between the rain - the water felt 'ripe' with lots of baitfish and mullet. Didn't have enough time to figure things out but did get a nice 22" trout on an olive over tan clouser. I also snagged mullet on consecutive casts - both were about 12" long. Those and a big pinfish rounded out the morning.
The trout was eating pogies:
I did find some worms in the trout, more than I usually see.
Nice job with the long pole! I need to find a pattern to imitate those baitfish and visit those bars on a changing tide. I checked the full stomach of a Redfish this morning and it had 2 Lizard fish (I think) about the same size as those.
