Managed to escape from work this morning. Got on the water about 11:30. Low tide changing. Headed to the creeks behind Bird island. Water real dirty muddy looking. Stoped at the creek mouth that I was going to go down and made a couple casts. Picked up a nice trout and missed a couple. Headed (down - up?) the creek. Spooked several fish working my way through. Come to a little open area. Fish pushing everywhere. Drifted up as close as I could get without using the trolling motor. First cast spooked a bunch of them. Kept working on them managed to get to nice reds 24 and 25 in. And then I spooked them good. There was another group just out of casting distance.I couldn’t get over to them with the trolling motor without scaring them too. Headed to the house. I’ll put my stickit back in the boat for a push poll. Maybe even take the kayak next time. Kind of tight back in there with a 22 ft boat.
I am fragile. Not like a flower. But like a bomb.
