Fished West Bay this
morning from 630 to 830
over shell in 2 to 4' of
water. Caught Trout
between 18 to 24" on
bone Super Spooks and
char/gold/pearl Fat
Boys. Ended up catching
11 or 12 Trout on this
spot
before moving over to
the coves out of the
wind. Jumped out of the
boat
over mud near a deep gut
in about 4' of water and
continued to catch Trout
to 18" on plum
Assassins. I probably
had about 25 Trout today
before I had
to call it quits. At 1pm
I picked up my client
and off we went back out
on
the bay. Didn't do any
fishing just running and
learning.
Trout caught on a slow
retreive keying in on
Mullet and streaky
water.
Water all along the
south shoreline from Old
Sportsmans to Sea Isle
definatly fishable and
holding fish. North
shoreline look like
Chocolate
milk from Alligator to
Meacoms. Found alot of
diving Pelicans working
the
area around Caranchua
Reef.

West Bay still coughing
up some good fish but
the numbers are slightly
down under windy
conditions. We have been
finding some good Reds
in the
coves in 2 to 3' of
water. Most have came on
topwaters around
grass/mud
bottoms the last few
days. Mainly in the very
back of the coves.
Chartruese/pearl She
Dogs and bone Super
Spook jrs have worked
for me. We
have been catching a few
Trout in the Coves but
my best Trout bite has
been over shell in 3 to
4' of water on big bone
Super Spooks or plum
Assassins. Keying in on
bait or slicks has been
the ticket. Last week
Michelle nailed a nice
24" Trout while wading
with me in one of the
coves
on a plum Assassin.
Today my guys only boxed
about 10 fish but they
were
all solid Trout. 8 of
the Trout were in the 22
to 23" range and all
caught
on plum Assassins over
shell. The bite was over
by 8am. The rest of the
days was tough! Water
was in good shape but
the bite just wasn't
there.
Yesterdays topwater bite
started off good but
quickly shut down with
all
the thunder boomers
comming in from the
south. Had to call it an
early one
yesterday. The San Luis
Pass should be turning
on very soon. Once the
wind
backs off I look for
some awesome topwater
action to start taking
place
down around some of the
flats near the pass. The
pass will offer some of
the finest topwater
action on the Gulf
Coast. May and June will
be awesome!!!!!! |
