Michelle and I got out for couple of hours this
morning before the rains. A little cool, breezy and overcast, but the fishing
was good! We fished a flooded mud/shell flat that I have run past a thousand
times, but never put much time into it. We ended up working it back and forth
the entire time. Although we caught fish the entire length, one little 50 yd
stretch produced most of the fish. We stayed on the trolling motor with corks
and DOA's in about 3-5 ft. of water. Of course Michelle picked off all of the
quality fish, but left a few to keep me busy too. Twenty one trout (9 shorts) a
red, and flattie all made it to the boat. (Kept the legal trout, red, and
flattie...freezer empty
) Although the water was
clear on the flat, it is still very sweet and red stained from the fresh
water...but the fish didn't mind. We fished the last couple hours of the
incomming tide today. Yep, spring (and the fish) are here!
