I over slept and didn't start wading until after 7:00. It was dead calm and an out going tide. The water was almost clear and temp was 67 degrees.
Fish were going f***ing nuts chasing bait, which made the topwater bite kind of squirrelly.
After maybe 10 casts with nothing, I finally had a 4#er jump on the Jimmy Houston SS jr. It was a stop and start wait kind of bite. I ended up with 6 trout, lost a couple and caught a big azz 18" puffer fish on a Corky Devil I let sit on bottom while I was doing something else. It's funny the first fish and the last fish were almost bookends. No fish on the Corky for a change. I think I caught the last fish about 9:00-9:30.
Going again this afternoon. I hope the 10-12 mph SSE wind doesn't pick up much more.
I should have a photo later today. It's on my daughter's phone...
