SGI weekend

It was my wife's birthday weekend, so we invited a bunch of drunks to hang out with us on St. George. :D
Luckily, I had a chance to fish 3 days in a row.

I fished the state park late afternoon Friday and got a lot of red action on topwater.

I switched to a jig thinking that either reds or flounder would be biting. I wanted something for the cooler, but lately I've had a bad habit of catching overslot reds. This guy measured 33 inches and fought like hell.

Also caught a few trout on pink Captain Mikes

Lots of reds, trout and flounder around this weekend. Early morning bite was the ticket. No bait stood out though. I caught fish on a Papadawg, Captain Mikes w/treble hooks and weedless, gulp, and even a spinner bait.

Awesome. With one yak I'm guessing the invites were jealous.

Man, I hate it when all of those over slot reds get in the way of good fishing! :lol:

Sorry you had to put up with those pesky things. :wink:


Glad you got out for three days in a row. What a blast. Good report.
