After what was hopefully the last cold front of the year, the afternoon on saturday brought us a nice warm up and a strong incoming tide. My solo client and I went out on a mission to catch a bag of fish for dinner. We started out targeting some trout on artificial, we had success on both a jerk shad on a jig head and prawn star worked under a popping cork. Once the tide was about half way in we transitioned to red fish and made quick work of finding a nice lower slot fish and had him back to the ramp and home in plenty of timetoncook them up for dinner the same night.

The warmer weather and rising water temps have the fish leaving their winter homes deep in the creeks and pushing toward the outside islands. These fish are loving the warmer water and they are HUNGRY. Had a solo client with me and we had an absolute blast catching red fish and trout all through the incoming tide. I dont know if he had more fun catching fish or sending pictures of his catch to his son inlaw who was supposed to join us but backed out the night before
