Day 3. Yep it hurts more now

Post by GoDoe »

Day 2 I only got black drum. I saw loads of them but it was very shallow and very still so they were too skittish. Lots of tails popping up and then right back down. I never could seem to be within casting distance.

My buddy go 8 reds and 2 lacks in the same area. He found a tailing school or reds and was able to follow them around and keep picking them off as they scattered then would pop back up.

Day 3 lots of walking and very few fish. Then I found a deep spot, knee deep, with lots of drum in it. They were catatonic........swimming around like they were asleep. Occasionally they would follow my black spoon fly but not eat it. I finally got 2 to eat and to hand. I am not kidding, I cast to 100 of those zombies. While chasing them around I spotted a single red fish. He knew what to do with a spoon fly. One cast to near him and he inhaled it.

My buddy got 1 little red. Slow day but man was it nice out there.

Working on tomorrow's plan now.
