we were to busy catching redfish to notice. :D

Reel Slow and I launched from the LH around 12:30 and headed east. We boated 9 redfish to 28" until around 3:30 and then the bite shut down. They bit great through the slack high but cut off as the tide began to fall. :smt102

Caught'em on gold spoons and topwater. R.S. , it was a great day. Let's do it again real soon. :thumbup:

Next time, we need a little more wind for a better drift!

I forgot to mention I picked up 3, 15" trout on topwater near Grey Mare. Topwater baits in 3' chop, say it ain't so. :-D

You know the trout fishing is slow when BD starts counting 14" trout! :-D

Was the gentle breeze you had yesterday as nice as the gentle breeze we had Saturday morning? :-D

Pretty close, TinCan. Reel Slow's boat takes that rough water better than my boat though.

I would imagine it does. And, yours seems to burn a lot of gas in rough water. :-D

6.8 miles per gallon by my figuring. Of course it would probably be better if I wasn't WOT everywhere I go. :-D
