Went out with friend and forum member skeeter-eater in his Riverhawk. Road looks like it has been bombed by WWII aircraft. Wind was howling. The morning low tide was a very low tide.

Finally got out into water where we could at least run the trolling motor and started hitting up creeks with an incomming tide. It took a long time to find them but we managed a few mid-slot reds from one creek. Bites all occurred later in the day. Inline spinnerbait was the go-to weapon.

Overall it was a difficult day with the low water, cold temps and howling wind but it was fishing (some catching) so we can chalk it up to a win. All fish were C&Red. Eight light beers were sacrificed during the creation of this report.

what luke humbly forgot to mention is that he caught all the fish....i caught a goose egg and a pair of wet boots. I enjoyed every minute of it though...can't wait to do it again.

after a few fishing trips with luke, i think i finally figured out his mojo....it's the PB&J sandwich that he has religously packed each time...packed inside of a special "wonder bread" tupperware.

Great report, glad you boys got out on the water and harassed JT's fish.
