Yeah, put in at ICC and its on the west side, Paul J Rainey Refuge is around there. You have to go across a few miles of open water but its never been too bad. Have caught reds just as soon as you get out the IC canal and start fishing the marsh

cool thanks, i have never fished that end, fished all over the other way from the boston to the jaws, did make that run up that way once down the intracoastal canal, that is a long boat ride from the avery to icc, was lucky to make it back to the ramp with just 12gals of fuel

I got rescued twice by the sheriffs department out there my first year of living south of I-10 Learned the importance of fuel, good equipment and TIDES

As the rest of the guys mentioned, the fishing in VB can be a very fickle. Sounds like you are fishing in some good areas, although the spots you tried are typically better in the fall. Yes there are some trout that have moved into the bay, but they are not "stacked up" like they are in fall months. This is not typical of the bay, to be catching trout in the bay in June. So like the rest of the guys mentioned, can be very hit or miss inside the bay this time of year. Keep at it, and if you have a big enough boat, consider making a run to the outside of MI and the pass for increasing your odds of catching fish this time of year. Usually if you cant catch trout with plastics over the reefs, shrimp under a cork will get you some reds and flounder. Good luck!
