Started with the morning coffee, and arrived to St. Marks
Florida at around 7:45am. Launched at an almost slack low tide, immediately
started throwing top waters with no luck. Moved to a large bar with mullet all
around throwing paddle tales and top waters and again had no luck.
Moved down the flat to the marsh entrance, poled the flat
and ran up on a lone redfish sitting in a sand hole about five feet away from
the bow of the boat. Sight casted a DOA Cal paddle tail to the fish and
immediately hooked up. Took a couple of runs and then boated a just over slot
28” redfish. Snapped some photos and successfully released the fish to battle
another day.
The tide started to move again so we decided to drift our
way into the marsh. TONS of mullet were in the marsh going in with the tide, we
successfully slammed with some more reds, trout, and a lone flounder that was
caught on the way out of the marsh.
Ran back to the ramp with an incoming tide and was off the
water by 12pm. Weather was beautiful at around 78 degrees with a 5mph wind from
the SE. Until Next time Tight Lines!
