    Default Manteo trout

    I wasen't feeling very good so I called Dr. feelgood and he advised me to go fishing instead of going to work. Met Happy Hours and hit the water about 6:30. Happy Hours blindfolded me and we motored over to his "top secret honey hole", right off the bat on every drift we would have short hits or catch one. I wish Gulp Alive had a little bit more robust tail, switched over to a storm and that solved that problem but also not as many hits either, still caught fish but I think the Gulps produced a few more hits. Happy Hours rigged up a homemade "top secret" double speck rig with a small trailer opps... they seemed to like the small trailer. All too small with a few worth measuring but 1/2 inch too short. As the tide stopped so did the action so we went exploring a few places and getting a game plan for next trip, all in all a great day. Tide was still going out when we first got there but tide table said it should have been high tide so I'm not sure what thats all about.

    No tide in Manteo area. Water movement controlled by wind!

    I can't believe I remembered my password

    I should have blindfolded Fishtales when I tied that rig, now the while world knows my secret

    It was fun till the water got dirty.

    btw, my tide app was never set so it wasn't right. It's fixed now
