2/15: First trip to Chocolate

February 15, 2016, 10:11 PM

I was off work today. I launched at Lutes about 6:30 and made my way down the bayou and into the bay. Water was a little milky looking, not too fresh. I did my best to get back toward some protected shorelines knowing that the wind was forecast to blow SW and W. I cut a couple of drifts over shallow shell with active bait. I caught a keeper red on the first cast, picked up a couple of decent trout and lost a flounder. The bite shut down on me about nine but it was pretty steady early.

I moved around and explored some other areas but couldn't get anything going. The wind really started blowing around 10. I called it quits about 11.

Sorry, didn't take any pictures. All fish caught in about 2' of water on a black/gold bubba clucker.

I was about to hit Choco Sunday but the wind kicked up-glad to hear some catches JYC.

"Hey Hillary, regarding the Benghazi Attack on 9/11-we'll just blame it on that movie, not my total lack of security. By the way, what's so significant about 9/11 anyway-was that a date my buddy Bill Ayers of the Weather Underground blew up a government building?" asked Obama to Hillary. BEAUTIFY AMERICA, RUN OVER A LIBERAL, THEN BACK UP AND SEE IF HE'S DEAD.
