I went out at 10:30 and waded my favorite gut in a S. shore cove. The tide was bailing out and the wind was maybe 15 from the South. The water was winter West Bay clear, but I saw mullet flipping while I was staking out.
I was throwing a black/pearl Corky Devil with a single hook. After about the first hour I was starting to wonder if any trout were there.
A few casts later and she comes up shaking hard, and then hitting the over drive. A very nice 6# fish. I made some more casts and switched to a blk/chrm/wht Skitterwalk and it was nailed by a 4 1/2# trout.
So I'm thinking this is gonna be an epic pre-front bite, but that was it. Both fish were caught a few minutes past noon and both were released.
