V bay ?
 
When you leave intercostal city launch going out 4 mile cut, along the way to the right looks to be some sort of weirs and also looks to be some in onion lake. Are they open to be fished? Just trying to scout out some spots with the map.
I have heard about the GW camp but don't know where it is. And know that some spots around it are closed at times.

Trying to put a trip together Friday evening if I get a chance.

Gm camp is south of North lake, Which is by fearman lake. And there is a wier in that area too.

No weir inside 4 mile cut,there is several inside redfish point. Onion lake is silted in,don't go in there unless you have a surface drive. You can still fish the canal going to the lake but that's about it. Mostly catfish in that area.

The top marker is 4 mile cut and the bottom is the game warden's camp

Is 4 mile cut just the opening to the bay from the canal?

jkcckc2002 07-08-2013 10:45 PM

Thanks guys. The weirs or what lookalike weirs are to the west along 4 mile cut. Just looking to find spots to start at so i dont have to run all over Friday evening.

Those are not weird they are terraces. Strips of grasses planted to prevent erosion. No fish in onion lake but the reds will get round the terraces on west side of 4 mile cut

No, 4 mile cut is from the mouth at the bay to the intracoastal

Like montauk said no weirs off 4 mile cut. There is a reef just to the left of 4 mile and all the bank where the blue line is drawn is good for reds Attachment 52933

Montauk17 07-08-2013 11:39 PM

The whole north shoreline of redfish point is good too

Yep hard west wind is suppose to be blowing Friday though, so I figured it would be a little less choppy and cleaner where I drew the line.

Good. Don't think my little bass tracker can handle the waves on the open water.

I appreciate the help.

I've been told to fish the back side of the berms along 4 mile cut. How tricky is it to get back there through the mouth of what's marked on this map as the vermilion?

bgizzle 07-09-2013 01:46 PM

Just Motor down and troll if you can. Don't take someone's word for it because things change overnight. I say troll if it ain't far which looks to be the case

That area is super shallow once it opens to little bay. If you want to try the area I would idle to make sure you don't get stranded on a mud flat. I used to run that area in a tunnel hull and would still almost get stuck on occasion.

It also depends on what kind of boat you will be in too.

17ft bass boat fish/ski

Better to fish the mouth of 4 mile cut, near the channel markers. The little chevrons on the west side of 4 mile can be treacherous, and not worth the risk. You can also catch croakers with dead shrimp on the bottom of the north entrance to Lake Fearman. As you round Red Fish point and head towards the game warden camp, if you travel about 200 feet from the bank idle down and look at your depth finder. As it goes from 4 feet to 1.5 feet, you are right on top of Redfish Point reef.

That sounds like a plan! Thanks for the advise!
