Saturday, 7/13/13 - A great day in the marsh. Wind light SSE tide low at dawn and rising. Found fish in the incoming tide drains. Caught 3. Kept 2 for the wife's fish fry.
Sunday, 7/14/13 fished with a friend. Very much same conditions, but fished mainly around scattered grass islands. Found pods of reds cruising the grass lines. Cast to one crawling single. Perfect presentation, but I twitched the fly in front of the red and a nice size flounder took the fly instead of the red. Total 3 reds and 1 flounder. One of the released reds was 19" and the other released red was barely 20."
Monday, 7/15/13 - Dramatic early morning tide change. Was met at dawn with high tide, high wind, and rain. Went back to bed.
Tuesday, 7/16/13 - High tides again but wind out of the ENE. Always hard for me under these circumstances. Paddled hard for 2 hours and saw only one pod of tailing reds. Did everything right. Cast to the middle of the tails and instantly was onto about a 2 pound lady fish. Great arial display and good fight for just a little while.
