Work called me back to Alligator Point again this morning, so I loaded up some fishing gear along with the work gear and headed down to St. Teresa before a long day of work. Got to the water around 9:00am and waded out about 100 yds or so to the spot I fished last week. The bite started a little slow, but gradually picked up within 30 minutes or so. Started catching under-slot reds with live shrimp and missed a few nice bites with one break off. I think it was a nice red judging by the hit-and-run bite. Could only manage short reds with the shrimp, so I switched up to a new penny gulp fished on the bottom. That would end up being the trick :wink: Caught keeper reds one after another and went through gulps one after another too. When the gulps were shredded beyond use, I decided to call it a day. Out of the water at 12:30pm on low tide.

All fish caught today were reds.....no trout. Last week it was all trout, no reds....go figure. Reds ranged from 14"-25" with the bigger fish being caught on the gulp. ALL fish released to fight again another day. Just enjoyed being on the water this morning :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:

I'm going back Thursday morning :thumbup: I have done much better there lately not taking the boat....wading seems to be the trick right now. There were 3 boats down there yesterday and I didn't see the first fish caught on any of them :roll: I'm ready when you are though :D
