Had an excellent time with Bernard, his Dad Bernard and his
Uncle Jimmy. Bernard is one of those
guys that totes around that lucky rabbit’s foot you’d like to steal. Seems like every trip, Bernard and gang make
this way turns out to be fishy. Although
day 1 brought a load of rain, we did manage a good mess of whiting before we
headed to the hill. Day 2 we decided to
run and gun for everything inshore we could find. We ended up with a few red, white(ing) and
blue (fish) slams and one traditional as well.
The redfish bite in the morning was really good, as we had double
hook-ups, a few double break offs and some nice upper slot and over sized
reds. We targeted flounder and although
we got one on the trusty Gulp swimming mullet, the flatties are quite stacked
up yet. The trout bite was fairly good
on the high incoming, but we weeded through mostly short fish. Had a fairly decent mess by the end of the
day, and had a great time tapping all the different opportunities spring brings.
Bernard sent me a pic of his famous grilled
redfish on the half-shell. Hopefully his
secret recipe is soon to follow. Thanks
guys for another outstanding trip!
