Put in at LH around right after low tide to catch incoming. Headed east and worked creek mouths. Site casted a red and pulled in a 15". Razzed partner about being up 1-0 and he immediately hooks up with an 18.5 (bastard!). About 10mins later, I site cast another red and bring in a 20.5. Later, while working the bottom of a channel, I hook a 16.5 trout. After that, nothing seemed to be hitting east so we head west. Try East River oyster bars and not much going but didnt work it too much. Headed up St Marks and tried a few spots/creeks up to the fort but nothing. Dinner was in the cooler so we called it a day. Everything caught on gulp - tried topwater, live shrimp/CT, shrimp on bottom, and DOAs.
Good job John.......Glad ya got out there...." on a Wednesday !!!!!! ?????? " , I noticed that healthy looking round Bud-Fish, I normally catch those on the " GULP, GULP " also..........WTG
It was awesome site catching the reds. My first time. I normally fish the flats or up the river, not up the creeks. The few reds Ive caught have been more "by chance" than anything.

Thanks man!
I had to get away for a sanity day. I was alittle concerned we were gunna get skunked given the recent cold snap. A co-worker even said I might be wasting a day off since the flats havent really caught fire but it was all good.
