Jun 28: This week, the fishing heated up, and so did the weather. Thursday night, I had Ron Hamilton and company for some gigging. We headed to East Bay and found it lacking in water, so we headed to the river. We rolled up and down the banks only to box a handful of fish. It was a tough night to say the least! Friday night, I had Mr. Luzack and crew. We headed to West Bay where we had 19 flatties before the tide change pulled all the water off the shoreline. Saturday, I had Victory Salazar and customers out for an afternoon drift trip. We threw live bait under a cork and scratched out a small box of fish. Things are looking up down here and the weather (the wind), is getting much more tolerable. The weather service is calling for 5 to 10 mph all week, which will give the bays a chance to clean up. I have a few openings this week, so give me a call and come on down.
Jun 21: Unfortunately, the wind (that was supposed to die down), stayed with us all week. I had Steven Morris and family on Thursday for some drifting. We boxed 4 trout, 2 reds, and 8 sandies. The water was dirty and live bait was in order. Thursday afternoon, Christy and I waded until just before dark catching and releasing a few fish. Saturday and Sunday I had Hugh McCulley, his wife Cathy, and their good friends out for some drifting. The bays were brown and we managed a few fish on Saturday and a nice 29 ¼ inch 8 pound trout that was successfully released on Sunday. It was a slow couple of days. With this wind forecasted to continue, wading the flats in West Bay will be the ticket. Most are having good results working the deeper grass with plastics for trout. I have the next weekend open if someone is looking to fish. Also I have some great news coming next week about our Duck, Goose, and Dove seasons. I will post all information in the next couple of weeks. Hunting days will be limited for Dove so you might want to get on the books early. Our “Cast and Blast” will be the best bang for the buck.
