As I sit here looking out the window it’s blowing around 25 mph and rainy, so if you need some reading material check out Eastern Fly Fishing. Nice little article on Savannah, Hilton Head Fly and Light tackle winter time fishing. If you have sent me an E mail and have not heard back from me please call 912 308 3700 wordpress has some issues getting e mails to me from the site.
We finally had some light winds and blue sky yesterday ! It was nice to get out there and chase the critters. The morning started off with what seemed to be sub freezing temps and slick calm water. Although it was cold the first flat we pulled up on had some nice fish tailing on the low water. We had a couple of eats on fly before the fish went into lock down, Time to leave. Second flat, well the fish spooked out as soon as I got on the platform at a considerable distance. Damn ! So I just left them. It’s kinda a bummer when you have seen big schools of reds playing on the flats only to run by another day and see some bait fishing bubs trying to limit out, Bo. Then you come back and half the school is gone if not all, or they are so shell shocked from said bubs fishing them everyday all day. Oh well enough complaining, the next flat had plenty of reds but were holding kinda deep and hard to spot at times with high thin clouds, but we did manage to catch some fish and miss some. Fun day all in all, especially when it warmed up !!
