Fishing on the Surface of the Sun...Econfina 8/8/07

Post by birddog »

TinCan and I launched from Econfina pre-daylight this morning and headed into some creeks hoping to find a few reds. Fished the length of 4 or 5 creeks chunking soft jerk baits, spoons, and spinnerbaits. Managed to find 13 reds mostlly peewees, but a couple of nice'uns.

Around 1:00 we'd had enough. The heat was brutal and Savannah's buffet was calling so we packed it in. Thoroughly enjoyed the trip TC. Can't wait til next time.

I do not sound like Roland Martin. I didn't say "OOOOH, SON!" one time. :wink:

Thanks for the ride, Birddog. It was a laid back, exploration day. And I was along for the ride. The Nutcracker II preformed flawlessly. We caught enough fish to call it a successful day. Nothing broke. I thoroughly enjoyed the day. Lookin forward to the next trip.
What was I supposed to do today?
