12/27/06 - You can lead a horse to water...

Post by Chalk »

But you can't make it drink or change baits :o :lol:

Met up with Tincan around 0900 this morning for a much needed day on the pond...Slid the Ghostrider into the gulf and proceeded to discover the unknown.

Upon coming off plane, we arrive at a place void of much life except a few pelicans and the hum of a mullet boat in the distance. Fish along a flat adjacent to a deep channel...see a few redfish and nice trout...Slowly work our way to the sweet spot and lock into a nice oversized fatty, almost forgot what a fighting fish felt like...took a picture and let her go
Image

Fish on down the area with the wind and end up picking up a few more redfish and seeing some really, really, really nice trout. Moved around a few times and caught or saw fish in about every spot we stopped at. Ended the day with a 26.5" and 23" redfish in the box.

Fish were chewing on jigs, spoons and spinner baits, caught 5 reds, missed several and saw alot more.

Good to be back on the pond, can't wait til next time...Thanks for tagging along Tincan

If you had two cameras, Chalk could have taken a picture of TC taking a picture to include in the post.
