.…and as tough as it's been, that's saying something. Calm and quite dead today until a few fish started showing late in the afternoon. Hit a couple bites and john got his. Good trout bite today in the jetties and surf - may try that tomorrow if the Albies don't show.
…for convincing me to take y'all out. Me :It's pouring rain, there's a big ground swell and the wind is going to start howling in the next several hours" Brant: "Sounds like a great day for an adventure lets go!" But he was right - we got on a pretty decent trout bite first thing [...]
Today Dale and I solved all the worlds fisheries problems. While we were having a great time, we found some good up and down pods of albies the fish were still tough. Got 4 or 5 eats and landed our fish. Disappointed the fish didn't show on such a nice day as Dale is an [...]
The trend continues - lots of Albies around and lots of shots…but very, very tough. We are literally on fish all day, but they are small pods chasing small spearing and silversides. It takes a lot to get a shot but if you get the fly in there, you'll get bit. The real pleasure was [...]
Today my A-Team brought its A game and we had little to show for it. Totally dead until 9am when the spearing Albies showed enforce and proceeded to baffle us. We got several bites and landed a fish…and were literally in fish all day long. Tony and Perry are great anglers and worked really hard [...]
North 20 this morning brought the fish back to the beach. Scattered pods all morning and afternoon but the PM fish were a bit harder - either doing the odd 'rocketman' skying or eating little baits. Best action was clearly in the morning. Don and John performed well for me and were able to snag [...]
Sat - Not much too it. Just a few scattered pods on the beach and aggravating sippers off the beach. Weirder weather. Got a few shots and the pending gail drove us in early. Fri…it was a different story. Blowing NE20 but very fishable, we were one of only 4 or so boats on the [...]
Thurs - pretty windy and John and Harry weren't so lucky - a few trout was all she wrote. Wed - I had a great time with Seth and Ciera. Slick calm from dawn to 11am and then SW15+ for the remainder. Our day had potential to be a great one, but we just couldn't [...]
Windy today - solid 20 all morning. Albies started off slow and the water was a hair dirtier than the day prior. We struck out looking for reds in the surf....and then we started finding a few small pods of big albies - all on giant silversides. It was a drift and wait game but [...]
Another nice day with the Wylie crew today - we left later today as to let the seas lay down some with the rapidly dropping winds. We wanted action for Caroline and Suzanne, but on the way out I got a call - reds on the beach (thanks so much Chris)! We found the school [...]
