Well, all I can say about Friday is that it was relaxing ta be on the river had only two Bass roll at the top water and none touched the worm Saturday I hit the flats around Bottoms and got a real nice Blue and a just legal Trout with many short strikes on the top water I did get checked by the man on Saturday and during our conversation, he advised me as to were ta try the Reds in the early mornin hours At daylight Sunday I was on my way to that spot just as fast as I could go The wind was perfect for a drift past the spot, so I stopped a fair distance from it and started trowing towards it. First cast BIG Red on pullin drag and havin fun, then he is gone Reel in and the hook is broke off "I will be replacing a lot of hooks this week" Changed to another Topdog and cast again, another hookup and land a 25"er final count for one hour of fishin 6 legal size Reds caught, around 6 lost during the fight, 1 18" Trout, two straitened hooks and a broken hook, all on Topdog Jr's I did see a lot of Pompano on the shoals out from Oyster Bay but couldn't get any ta take my offerings All in all, a pretty decent weekend

wtg. Thats is a mess of reds. We still have had zero luck with the Top water action. I must be doin somethin wrong. I did see a Trout try to strike the CT, damedest thing I ever saw.

They wanted the top water movin yesterday, I usually fish them like I do for Bass "retreive, stop, retreive, stop.....", but they would really crush the lure with a steady poping retreive yesterday!

Does sound like a pile of Reds wevans. Good trip.
