Launched at the lighthouse about 9 this morning. The water was low. Headed east with the intent of fishing a couple of creeks that have produced during cold weather. Couldn't get there. Eased out to deeper water and ran further east to a nice flats area. Saw lots of reds on this flat. Cast past the fish. Work the bait back slow. Drag the bait up to the fish's head. The fish turns and swims off.This happened several times. Guess that's what ya get in 40 degree water.

The tide chart wasn't close today. The low was supposed to be at 1.1'. It never got that high all day.

FYI: An unbreakable Minn Kota trolling motor shaft is breakable.

Beat studying the scientific revolution & paradigm

"at least you got out there" Sorry about your trolling motor.

Sorry about your luck out there, John. Cold water is rough on your gear. Took me forever to get my starter to engage this morning.

Sorry about the trolling motor, that stinks. Since it is unbreakable will they replace it?

At least you got to go.
I tried all morning to find someone to go with me, no luck.
Sorry about the trolling motor.

i broke mine you either send it to them and they fix it with a huge turn around time or you find a local guy and they give you the shaft and charge for labor ~$80

At least the keys were not locked in the truck at the ramp. Thanks for the invite!!!

Just bought a Steven Hawking book because paradigms are cool.
Didn't expect that word Inshore though.

Hate to hear about the trolling motor. But at least you got to go.

It could be better, it could be worse.

You might have enjoyed the fish fry where I was at more....

Tough one John. How did it break?

I had the same luck with the Bass John but not the trolling motor

A rock. Had the motor 3/4 speed and didn't see it.
