St. Mark 10/9

Post by rx fisher »

Not too successful, but maybe someone will learn from my experiences.

Left am 1 1/2 hour prior to low tide fished West side of St. marks channel
really good movement of water, mullet jumping here and there. Used
gold spoon ( slow) and top Dog Jr( walk the dog).

Not a single bite, at slack tide went out to the flats to get Pin fish for bait,
CAught a couple undersize trout and catfish, catfish.

Went back to the east side of the channel around 22 and 23, used trolling motor around oyster beds. Same thing, if we had'nt had a pin fish out the back we would have been skunked, caught a 19 inch flounder.

Maybe it still too hot, and the water was very dark about 6 inch visability.

You need to get out and find the clearer water on the flats. You were most likely to far up the river. You need to be east of 6.
