Trip Summary
Greetings A2 Fans!
Fishing trips have four quarters (Similar to a Football game). Sometimes we catch them at the first stop, sometimes at the last stop. On this trip, return customers Macky, Tim and I had to work for them in a pre- front situation. On a previous trip, I had good idea that I'd find them in the same area but that proved to be wrong! We took our loses, sat down for lunch which gave me some time to rethink my plan for the day...
After a great sandwich and conversation, I got us going and made a solid run west to some grounds I hadn't fished in months. As we approached the area, I noticed the water clarity was what I was looking for! Clear and moving. Needless to say, I was amped up before we even made our first cast in the area.
Tim, and Macky both began to fish the spot. Our action began with a solid Sheepshead bite, and after a quite a few missed fish and a little bit of coaching, we began catching them! After about a dozen good sheepshead, the Redfish showed up! In an interesting twist of events, they only took baits on the bottom- so we switched! Macky, Tim, and even I got into the action. After a good 2.5 hours of constant action, my group had their fix so we high tailed it back to the dock.
