Vermilion Bay today

[cajun bill]

Good news: caught enough for da wife and I to have a meal.

Bad news: Neither one of us better be hungry.

Results: Fished the Cove for several hours, caught the first speck, nice one weighed between 1.5 and 10 lbs., not sure cuz I didn't weigh it, but probably toward the low end of the range, on the 3rd cast. First thought: dis is gonna be good. Second thought: Fished for another hour before I caught the second one and a little later, caught another 12.5 inch monster. Ran to the Hammock, no one there, but tried anyway, nothing. Ran to the TP, saw a boat fishing the birds and pulled up with him and caught a very nice 7" white trout then nothing. Back to the cove, cut my finger and left them biting, well......... not really.
Still good to be on da wata again.

When I got to the landing, I asked a couple of guys how they did and both said "did okay", but didn't say where and I didn't ask. I'm guessing that judging by the number of trailers I saw at the landing and the few boats I saw at the cove, trashpile and the hammock, most must have gone out, maybe the pass or the reefs.
