Good Morning Bite

7.17.14

Phil and I hit the mouth of the river today.  He was looking for some fish for a fish fry.

It was a beautiful morning and quite a change from the humid, stormy mornings we have been having lately.

The Ochlockonee was just before a high tide and the water was clear.

We went to the horse shoe bar and it was open as Phil banged 3 nice trout and some small reds and flounders on a white gulp.

I couldn't get anything to look up at the bandonkadonk or cordell,  so I joined the gulp fest and caught a few myself.

As the tide died, we headed up to the long bar just to check it out.  I finally go a trout to look up at the donk and a nice topwater fight began and ended with a 19" trout in the box.

The only fish I could get to hit the Cordell red fin was this.  I think it is a fish.


Phil ended up taking home this nice bag of trout for him and his buds.
