Friday - Ecofina

Post by charlie tuna »

Put in at 7:30 AM, water temperature 80 degrees, wind ESE 10 to 15 MPH, one foot chop. Water was not clear, i'm guessing the wind had it stirred up, kind of like ice tea! Basically fishing a flood tide. Ran North and fished the points, all atificials. Saw some bait, but no action on the surface. Had a few hits on suspended plugs, no hits on surface plugs. Best action was on Gulps on 1/4 ounce jig heads. Picked up two flounder early on, lost two nice trout at the boat, caught two reds around 19 inches(released). When the tide started out, i had about 30 minutes of action at a creek mouth. Lost two big reds and caught two 26+ inchers. Blackened redfish coming up!![imgImage]Image][/img]

Had a seacow that was hanging around for over an hour, that didn't help matters!! Out of the water at 12:30 PM

Did you ever get in the trout heavy? Or at least decent? Nice reds btw...

Both the trout lost, were upper slot, plus i saw about half dozen other upper slot trout on "follow ups". I was not targeting trout, but there were quite a few along the points. The first thirty minutes after the tide changed, and the water started boiling out of the creeks, had the fish "turned on".
