My wife joined me and Dave on this trip. Had a late start, didnt get on the water until 2 pm. The action was fairly decent right away, with Dave picking up a 17'' fish in the first cast. It was supposed to be a bait stop. We ended up with 4 legal trout in the cooler by 4 pm and then we could not buy another bite until around 6. Perhaps it was due to very little water movement with low tide at 4.40 pm. We moved around quite a bit during this time and settled on a drift in 3.5' of slightly stained water. From 6 to 6.30 pm we put 8 more legal fish in the cooler. The bite was fast and furious. We had many missing hook sets and a few fish unbuttoned on us. Hate to leave them bitting but it was getting late. Ended up with 12 total for the day.

Also, a couple of pictures of Dave's reds from last week. I am too lazy to pull up the old post from last week.

My only justification for paying for those over-priced gulp. Half a piece of those thing will last a whole trip. Just cut a little piece and pit it on a really small hook.

We had a good trip considering our short window of opportunity. They really turned on after low tide when the water switched around. It's surprising how fast things can change.
