Re: Beach time -

MW - Golf with your son instead fishing - an easy call, I believe. When I would return to SoCal on a visit I would often play a round of golf with my Uncle, also my namesake Ken! Those were great times, even though I was more off the course than on since I never played much. He, on the other hand, h...

Re: Beach time -

Fishing was not quite as hot for me after that first afternoon, but I did catch another of those fat specs in the morning. The trip east produced little!. But dinner was great and the moon was on display!

Beach time -

Not that sandy beach like Galveston where the sand is imported from somewhere, this is a beach made of the local source - oyster shell and a few other species. The shell is of various sizes depending on how traumatic its life on the beach has been. We landed one afternoon for a few days. 20211017_18...

Re: Estes Flats Sep 3-4

Great report, Ron. Perhaps you have thrown down the gauntlet for trip reporting! Gestalt - I have added this to my list of words - I like it in the sense of a fishing outing - there are many different aspects that play a part in the enjoyment/pleasure of an outing.

Big moon Sunday night –

Went to Tiki late Sunday, launching as late as you can get as still be Sunday, off before sunrise. There was a big bite window from 1:11 till 3:11 with an incoming tide a bit later. On launch the tidal flow was still strong going out. We were a bit early to catch the best of the incoming flow. We we...

SLP 6-3

Launched in the AM just after sunrise into calm winds and the initial stages of an incoming tide. Went that far south in hopes of finding salty water on the surface. There was some salt but not a lot!! But lots of fish action – most of it not very accessible as it turns out!! I was trolling across C...

Congrats on getting out and thanks for the report - I catch a lot of reds, flounder and specs on that same jerk shad! just don’t have the hang of the flounder bite yet. I think you are selling yourself short here ^ - you caught 4 flounder! I agree that flounder are tricky and perhaps you missed some...

I like it when redfish start acting like bait fish schools and take to circling the lights in large numbers!! Amazing how fast they can disappear!

The second includes the conjunction of Jupiter and Saturn in the dark blue sky above the clouds – zoom in to see both of the planets.

An afternoon at Snake Island Cove

I launched at Noon at Sea Isle with Dandydon and we headed over to Snake Island Cove. The air and the wind were both about 63 degrees and it was foggy! We had been in intermittent fog on the way down but it seemed thicker here. It stayed with us all day, rising some so we could see the grass banks a...
