A Variety Of Fish

10.25.15
water temp 72 degrees

We wanted to get out even though the tides were at a high were running high and fast.
Fishing the low tide at Fripp Inlet we managed one keeper red, a whiting, a small pretty black drum,
pinfish, and a grunt.
Tried for bulls, but no bites.
Lots of peeps fishing today.

Blowing' In The Wind

10.18.15

Well that was quite a blow.

Hunter and I ventured out in the morning only to be greeted by winds that kept cranking up to around 20 mph.

We let the boat blow onto the hill as it was a rising tide.

After losing a nice trout at the boat, Hunter scored on this keeper red for the only fish that we felt bite come to the boat.  There were extreme bows in our lines all morning, so anything could have been chewing on our baits and we wouldn't have felt it.

Nice being out with Hunter, even if the wind was howling.

Small Trout, Big Red

10.17.15

Water temp 78 degrees

Wanting to get out before the blow this weekend, I slid the tin boat off the trailer and headed over to the convenient holes behind the house.

Keeper 14" trout were biting well on the curly jig in white until a large boat washed the hole out with huge waves spoiling a nice trout bite.

I proceeded over to one of our bait holes and loaded up on mullet and shrimp.

I tried to expand my zone for fishing, but after two or three stops and nothing happening I proceeded back to the bank where I always get action.

This time I threaded a big live mullet on a kahle hook and was quickly rewarded with this big, multi- spotted overslot red that couldn't resist the free meal.

I watched some pup reds rooting in the mud for shrimp and decided to call it a day as the tide bottomed out.

Gotta love fall fishing!
