My fourth trip out to the flats this year and by a long shot, the best weather. 5.7 with light winds. Found the fish lazy and willing to hang out and have their picture taken. The tailing certainly isn’t on fire yet, but its coming soon! One of these days, I’m going to pick up the flyrod instead of the camera…maybe tonight.
So I couldn’t help it and went back last night with the fly rod…it was a little windier than the previous night, but I was still able to find three or four fish tailing, only two tailers were fairly active. Tried out two new flats that I’ve never fished before and one was productive and the other wasn’t. Also saw lots and lots of bait up on the flats last night. Big mullet and little crabs galore, good sign for things to come. I managed one on the fly just before sunset.
