  • West Bay Grass beds

    Well fellow anglers this had to be one of the most beautiful days of the year. It doesn't get much better than this.

    Here is an action shot of one of many redfish I caught today. I ran solo from 2004 bridge and about froze my ears of by the time I reach the north shore line. Fished east of the cut.

    I took these shots with my phone. Water was " vodka" clear! Had a limit in the first fifteen minutes. All in the 21-22" range. Left a spot open for a bigger fish. Had a 24" take the invitation and he joined the other to fill my limit.

    I caught and released another 8-10 fish most in the 18-21" range. Picked up the stak out stik around 11am and headed to Sea Isle to top off the tank and go over to SLP to pick up Super Spook. Right when entering the marker to Sea Isle I spun my prop. I then turned around and putted back to 2004 bridge for the next 2 1/2 hours.

    I thought about being pisssed off but it was just too nice of a day with the weather and the fish biting. Luckily I had a a few cool ones in the cooler, a sandwich and plenty of smokes.

    Guess I will have to hit the surf in the morning.

                    Good catch Ray, Sneekypete and me had an awesome day also but there is always something that gets to ya just like your prop. We were wading down E.matty S.Shore line about four casts off the bank and headed east. There were some guys out 1000 yards even with us doing the same thing all of us were catching some good trout on corkys. All the sudden here comes this jet ski yes JET SKI I said Rick I no this guy isn’t going to run in between us and the guys out there where catching some good fish. Well about that time he shuts it down and starts drift fishing and his drift is coming right to the direction we are wading. Rick made the comment is that what you call cutting off a wade I Said yepp it is. The jet ski drifts in front of us and I assure you if Sneeky wanted to launch a fat boy at him he would have drilled him but he keep his cool. This cat speaks to me and Rick and says do one of yall want a ride back to the boat, LOL Rick says with a stern voice HALL NO We Are Catching Fish. He eventually ask one more time then fired up his jet ski and down the shore line he went. Maybe it was KENNY.
