Salt Ditch 11/15/2009

[Ray]

My wife and I fished the Salt Ditch this afternoon. The winds were too high for us to hit Big Lake. They felt like at least 15 mph out of the South.
So we hit the Salt Ditch. We hit the first bayou on the left heading South from the ICW. The water was moving out of the marsh pretty good.
I caught 2 small Flounder on Gulp, it is the only 2 fish I have ever caught on Gulp, they had some bright spots on them.
My wife was fishing a cork and dead shrimp, then switched to Gulp.
She had a few hits but didn't set the hook fast enough. Something also hit her cork. I saw the swirl, but didn't see the fish.
We are having some stuffed Flounder for supper tonight. They are in the oven right now.

I've always had good luck with the gulp,try the swimming mullet. Where is the salt ditch?

Go West on the Intercoastal Canal from the ship channel. When you pass under the Ellender Bridge, turn South right after you go under the big highline towers. It is the first
canal to the South.

is that marsh before the bridge on the north side any good saw it the other day

No, we went South of the ICW and West of the bridge.

I know where you are talking about, but that is super shallow.
