I hit the bay today "solo" and was greeted with brown water and windy conditions. I was able to find a reef that had some decent water around it and that is where the fish were. I am going to do a quick report today. Fished mid bay reefs while the waves were whitecapping. Caught fish on every drift. Threw back the first red because I tought it was a fluke in the conditions - 20 1/2". Then did two more dirfts and caught 5 undersized reds (19 1/2"ers) and 1- trout 17" (kept) and kept the next two reds 25" and a 27 7/8 for the baby sitters dinner ( We will have left overs for when we get in). I will be back out there tomorrow with the wife and my brother. Now that I look outside it has calmed but the fish are still holding in windy conditions on the deep reefs.

Artificials under a popping cork. The more you pop the better.

I will post pics after I get the little one to bed.

Here are the pics and those are not my painted toe nails. Looking at the pics the other red may be closer to a 23" - I measured the bigger one and guestemated the other.

....nice fish DB! I have to pick up my truck in the morning and then find a machine shop where i can get a piece of stainless rod cut so I can put my trolling motor back together. Got the water out of my gages so ought to be able to hit it down there later on this week. Smooth Move and I might call in sick to work and do some fishing!

Let me know, I will be available till Thursday, pending meetings.
