Went out at day break and decided to launch at Fat Boys and fish around the causeway cuz my buddy had to be in early. Stayed around the causeway till around 9am with only 1 trout so we decided to make a run to Campbells Bayou and man that was a good idea!
On the way saw a big group of slicks on the water and birds working everywhere. We set up a drift and instantly started catch trout on shrimp under popping corks. Caught 3 to 4 trout before the birds left only to regroup somewhere else and we hauled butt there to do the same thing. We repeated this till 11am throwing shrimp and morning glory assasians at them. Normally right when they hit the water BOOM you were hooked up. It surprised us that out of 15 or so trout maybe only 2 were dinks. The rest were all 17-20 inch trout.
Didn't take any home since I had those trout from Friday night but man it was fun. Oh yea and rough as hell, solid 2-3 ft waves and getting worse as the morning went on. We left them biting around 11 and passed 2 big groups of birds working on the way in
