Little Florida 8/25

[Raymond]

Met Meathauler this morning and made an attempt to slay some trouts. Finished with 21-22 trouts and 3 reds, nothing big 2# max.
Water clarity was not great but not terrible and the bite was somewhat slow. I caught in the trough between the rocks and Meathauler's fish came off the ends. Most fish were caught on Opening Night sand eels (MINE). The marsh fire is really kicking south west of the west cove rec area. We were directly south of the fire and it looked like a scene out of an apocoliptic movie. Might want to bring a respirator if you go Thurs-Friday. Saw Specktator on 10 coming home, that was me driving like hell to get home and into work clothes. Did not take a pic, was in a hurry.

so that explains why it was so smokey at the house yesterday in carlyss thought jude was practicing being a fire chief and forgot how to put a fire out due to all the salty cajuning instead of training

[meathauler]

By the way raymond I stopped at Academy and got u that pack of opening night I used of yours. Just made it to work too!! Freaken Ferry

[Raymond]

Don't worry about it, I made a another friend by sharing my sand eels
And jigheads, and stringer.....
I should have stayed, sitting here waiting on my paperwork for tomorrow.

[meathauler]

I guess were even, I shared all the fish I caught on your baits. LOL It was fun being a sport for once. Im going get a belt ASAP. That thing is da $$IT when u n da water. Hell you made a friend and have me convinced to switch Insurance comp to U. (I think that was planned).
By the way, my bait and stringer was on the beach and I was following Raymond. HAHA

We didn't know you were over there. We saw 7 others wading to the East of us.
One guy to the West. Gerald went and fished with him for a while.
We are going back tomorrow. Hopefully this weather will hold up a couple more
days.

[Evans]

Good catch looks like the beaches might be turning on.

Jedi I passed by yall bait store yesterday, but the lady said that yall went get a mount. I fished top water for a hr and not one blowup. Switched to plastic and it was on!!! who ever likes chasing the birds it will be on soon. The shrimp r starting to leave the marsh.

[Ray]

I caught on topwater. I was chunking a Zara Puppy.
Spook Jr.'s didn't work yesterday or today.
It started early and stopped early. Switched to a
Bomber Jerk Minnow. That did the trick for me.
