With the ending of the the year I wish I could say we finished with a bang,  With mid day high tides it’s been a narrow window on the reds.  Being said we have caught reds and some trout to finish off the year.  Not much going on with the stripers, it seems as the bulk of the fish are moving to feed on the shrimp and then heading back up river as the shrimp migrate out. That being said, stripers can still be caught, but I wouldn’t make a day of looking for them.   I have been talking to some folks about menhaden along the Atlantic coast and with stocks down 80% of historical highs, our striper, jacks and tarpon irregularities seem to be pacing with this decline.  Food for thought.  This may also  be causing some decline in trout, granted we have had some cold winters in the past, but a combo of cold winters and lack of forage who knows?

Trout in 8 " of water

Yesterday was one of those days ya just don’t know what the hell is about to happen.  We had some tarpon to start the morning off, but the fish would not stay in one place to well.  They would roll up and then be on the other side of the  basin.  I would work my way there and they would be  at another area. F$#^ers.  Off to some reds.  The wind clouds and rain were making the low tide a bit tough but we did manage a red and a trout that was in 8″ of water. We decided to get out of the rain and get some lunch than bust’m up in the grass.  Bust’m up we did, there were armies of reds marching in with the tide. The Teeing off began.  Branden and his son Austin started to get into some fun!!
