Some of you know that im going to have surgery on my arm monday morning and am gonna be out for atleast 8 weeks. So i wanted to start the new year off right.. and do some catching, not fishing lol
Capt Clint Sholmire and myself made plans to do some fishing today. We left the house around 9 am headed to find some fish. We hit our first spot and caught a few smaller trout and then the bite just kinda fizzled out. So we ran around to a few of our normal spots in west bay and pieced together a few dinks and a few reds.
We ran around checking various spots, hitting a few that we figured had fish and were coming up short.
Clint wanted to do one thing in particular and it didnt work, so we moved on and tried something new to find some reds and ended up catching another red. It was getting later in the afteroon, and clint suggested we make one more stop and try a spot we though was gonna hold fish earlier but it didnt. We set up and made a few casts and they were most definately there this time.
Clint was killing them on a pink corky devil and i was doing fair on a white/brown cocahoe minner.... These fish were acting like they hadnt had a bite to eat in a month lol
We ended up with 20 trout, 2 reds and one flounder.. Most of the trout were 19 to 20" class with the biggest being about 22 1/2. A good way to start the new year off with one of my good friends.
Thanks for a fun trip Clint
