Friday 13th bust

Decided to try to run out of oyster Bayou for some night time trout action around the lighted platforms. Stopped and caught some live shrimp and crokers in the bayou and headed out right at dark. Seas were not too bad considering the nasty weather that was offshore according to the radar.
Only caught 3 keepers from dark till 0100. Had a few get off and missed a couple bites but it was a tough night fishing. Seen a few other boats out there but never seen anyone slinging them in so at least it wasnt just us getting skunked. Tried plastics, cork, live bait bottom fished everything...
They all cant be good reports just hopefully the next one will be.
No clue why the bite was not on... Full Moon, Water was dirty IMO for the area, tide was screaming too. Maybe the storms had them turned off.

I was always told trout spawn on the full moon and don't feed during the time they are spawning.

May effect the bite but...I think 50-80% of the rest of the fish might get hungry from time to time.

The few fish we did manage to catch were all full of eggs and empty stomachs when i cleaned them.
