Went exploring ...

Yesterday, two new flats, no fish, did see a nice sunset, took a few pictures, cannot wait to fish my flats that I know hold fish, I plan on seeing them very soon

Bragging may not bring happiness,
but no man having caught a large fish,
goes home through the alley.

Been there… I love to scout, but it can be frustrating when searching for tailers, finding a “perfect” looking flat, and finding none. I probably spent 2 yrs scouting before finding a flat and even that flat does not produce large numbers of tailers. Had a mentor point me to a “real” flat and was amazed at how many tails in the air. Its still cool to look around and observe the life on a flat when all is quiet. Crabs climbing the grass to feed on periwinkles, bait fish, etc. Doesn’t get much more peaceful. Keep on scouting!

I also plan to hit the flats soon and get my first tailer of the year. Good luck man :slight_smile:

Yell my way man, we can exchange some flies and catch a few together. My “secret flat” holds hundreds of fish, it’s nothing to see 30-40 tails when we go. That is no fish tale or should a I say tail.
