Friends,
Hung out in Jamaica Beach this past week and was able to get a few trips out on West Bay. It was hit or miss depending on the day. We'd stop at 1 spot that was loaded with bait and moving water...and catch nothing. Other times, we'd stop at a spot with little bait and get in to a good bite. So many variables in this fishing game!
Sunday morning we caught 2 keeper trout...just could not buy a bite!
Monday morning we caught 6 keeper trout to 20". They hit Texas Roach soft plastics on 1/4 oz (the current was ripping).
Thursday morning we found a solid redfish bite around active bait. You could see the nervous bait running and just throw in to it...BAM, redfish! 3 of us caught limits of reds (pics are of mine...26", 24", 22") and a whole bunch of trout just under 15". Chicken on Chain 1/4 oz.
We made trout ceviche Tuesday night as the rain set in! Man it was tasty!
Headed back out Sunday morning if the weather cooperates.
