Got off work this afternoon determined to get out...got blown out wed so made a call to my buddy larry Nimmo.....he picked me up and off we went to the upper bay area,.....JP had called me at work and reported a good bite so I was ready...
Found working birds right away......caught a few smallies.....kept going from pod to pod and finally we found what we were looking for......used Topwater....BKD's on 3/4oz jigheads....but best lure by far was a 2oz Braid metal jig and dropper fly.....
Got our limit up to 26".....lost a couple good ones right at the boat that were for sure bigger than 26"........Bigger fish were all caught after the birds went by.....on the outside of the pods of fish....
Great news is NO BLUES today!......Water temp was *60..........
here's some bird action.....
Here's a shot of a double I had...not sure of the size of these, but nice healthy fish today.....
Really high tides this afternoon....with a strong outgoing the whole time we were fishing.......
First time this year that metal outfished plastics.....
Very little boat traffic....I saw two boats trolling...No LTJers.......
Hope to be out Wed....but may be out sooner........
Fishing is really good right now.........
