12-20-11 Reds - Video Added

It has been a long time since I have fished the ICW but my 9 year old is on Christmas break and the weather looked perfect so we hit the road at 5 am. Made good time to Mt. P and picked up 3 dozen muds from Haddrells just in case. Hit the water to slick calm conditions and zero wind around 8. At the first stop we found a very large school agressively feeding and the day kept getting better. Finished up with a hot bite that included a flounder before we loaded back up at 12:30.

Ended up with 28 reds from rats to 28" or so. All on muds with a jig head or white Gulp shrimp/jerk shad.

Thanks for the comments. More bites on the muds by far but the gulp shrimp on the jig head did well. Used a chart jig head for muds, not by design it was just what I picked up first and they liked it.

Nicely done! Great pics too!:sunglasses:

Great job! Your boy looks good toting those reds. And hats off to any 9 year old lad who gets on the water at 5 a.m. for some fishing! Great job, little man!

Very nice. I enjoyed the video.

Maybe, just once, someone will call me “sir” without adding, “you’re making a scene.”

Great video…looks like a great day of catching.

If you’re lucky enough to be fishing, you’re lucky enough.

Great stuff. Thanks for sharing!
