You can't blame the weather!

I have had a lot going on that I never intended to have going on lately, but Iam trying to fish my way through it.  The weather certainly hasn't been a deterrent, as we have been able to fish any where we wanted to for the past week.

I fished with some special folks from Rogers Ark., Robert and Mary Haynes and Robert's Dad, last Friday and we caught some very solid flounder in the bayous.  We left the lake pretty early after waiting out a little more wind than we wanted to fish and caught the flounder, as well as a few trout and reds on Texas Roach Sea Shads and live shad.  We had a very weak outgoing tide, but it was enough to keep the fish moving most of the morning.

The following day, the flounder were still doing their thing as were a few slot reds, but the trout had disappeared.  The tide was even weaker, but the water still looked good.  Every fish hit either a black back Spoiler Shad,glow-chartreuse Sea Shad or soft mullet fished on a 1/8th ounce head.  The fish were also holding on the deeper breaks rather than around the mouths of the shallower cuts.

I am wasting a great weather day today, but you do what you have to do.  Hopefully, I will be back on the water for the next three days!

The south reef. That's all that needs to be said.
