We arrived at Presnell's and nobody was there (it was that early)..Eckley showed up at 6:30 and we were on our way in the dark....We head past Black's Island looking for a trout...
We started out with a light breeze and some good misses on topwater...Birddog missed something that he described as having a head as wide as his stomach


We ended up catching 8 keeper trout, biggest was 19" and about 50 short trout, some blue fish, ladyfish, even a lizardfish made it to the boat....We caught 4 redfish to 20"....
Weather was I guess typical for August, being unpredictable...Remember the lite breeze at dawn, it went from a breeze to almost a gale to almost dead at slack tide....It was dead still and hot about 1:00, we decided to move about 100 yards and by the time we stopped, the wind was blowing a gale and cold...
Caught fish on straight jigs, cajun thunders, topwater, spoons and spinners....most all were in 3-5 foot of spotty bottom....
The scalloper's were there in force as well....Nice day on the bay, Birddog thanks for tagging along....
