Went out at first light and didn't have much luck. Temp was around 61 deg f and the winds were light. I was throwing my old reliable Pink Skitterwalk, but not many takers. I switched over to a Bone & Chrome Top Dog that makes a lot more noise and immediately starting getting results, but was having a hard time getting anything to the boat. I finally picked up a couple of Rat Reds so the skunk was off. Went out to the tall grass. Trout were kicking this B&C up into the air. Knocked its little red eyes off his skull. But it still made noise and lots of Trout from 16 to 18" made it to the boat. But the Big Ones were just torturing this poor bait with out coming to see me. I started fishing for Flounder when the slack tide kicked in and caught a Sea Robin. Flipper decided to play in my fishing hole and I had a long paddle so I called it a day. On the way in I made a few cast and picked up another Rat Red. Weather was fantastic. Slight wind, and lots of sunshine.
