April Fools in the Bayou

Took a trip out to take advantage of the incoming tide all day, was expecting to have 10-15mph winds and a chance of thunder storms but the weather man was apparently pulling an April fool’s joke as it was less than 5mph winds all day. It was very foggy and misting in the morning when we launched but eventually turned into sunny blue bird skies. Started throwing top water and had a few blow ups and eventually hooked up to a little red. Continued fishing and caught some nice trout. We moved over to an oyster bar that was just covered by the tide, immediately saw tailing fish, Cast, hooked up to a nice 31” spotless Redfish. Snapped some pictures and it was safely released. Moved deeper into the bayou and caught a fair share of reds and trout. We then cruised home to the wonderful scenery of the Saint Marks Wildlife refuge and the beautiful spring weather. Until next time, tight lines

Springtime Stoney Bayou Dolphins (St. Marks, FL)

Arrived at St. Marks at sun-up to a incoming tide. Ran immediately to the creeks south of the light house. Threw top water lures and had a lot of blow ups and eventually landed some trout. Moved on and Alain caught a large needle fish and snagged a mullet, which both put on a good fight. Moved into Stoney Bayou and dolphins came in attacking and surrounding mullet just inches from the boat. After the dolphins stopped spooking all the fish we ended up catching some more trout. I gut hooked one 18" and decided to take her home. The start of spring brought a great day on the water!
