Hit old dirt docks at around 5am this morning. Oddly enough, nobody was there. Hit the eastern shoreline and the bite was one fire. First cast produced a 19in red, the very next 3 cast were Trout ranging from 14-20in. On the hunt for a snook with some size, I started pitching some live finger mullet, which were so abundant that my first cast with the net was all I needed. Caught several large jacks, and several baby snook ranging from 14-22in. Couldn’t hit any size. I could see them but the smaller fish were way more aggressive. Blue fish are pounding baits. Landed a nice blue fish on my 2500 reel which made for a fun fight. All in all I hit a slam. Trout, Red, Snook, and what I call the flea market slam of Lady Fish, blue fish, and Jacks all by 9:30am.
The conditions are excellent with clear water, tons of glass minnows and mullet, schools of drum and sheep’s. You all have no excuses about the weather this weekend, and I hope everyone had something to be Thankful for. Enjoy the day and let’s see some pics.
Awesome job on the SLAM!!
Love the “flea market” slam, I’m gonna start using that. Also, am I clueless for not knowing what the old dirt docks are?
Not sure the actual name of the place. It’s before Christensons Landing.
