We wanted to try and go out to 2 flat for some Bull Red fishing Monday, but got sidetracked by flying squirrels in the attic Sunday night.
So, on Election Day we decided to try in the river due to the strong winds.
After waiting for the tide to get high enough to launch, we finally got going around 10 AM. We couldn't get out to the mouth of the river, so we decided to try in front of the Tradewinds dock.
After 6-7 tries at anchoring up, we finally hooked bottom with the anchor and that was where we were gonna fish.
We were fishing the bottom with cut mullet and managed a white trout and a couple of croakers.
Then the rain came. Wonderful.
Only fished a couple of hours, went home wet.
"I still don't know why I fish or why other men fish, except that we like it and it makes us think and feel."
