Memorial day in the marsh
Preston and I made a quick run in the marsh this afternoon on a scouting trip.
The flats were quiet with some bait moving but no predators working. The water clarity was fair at best with some pockets of cleaner water here and there. The moss is growing in some places but there are still large areas with just a mud bottom. Preston missed one Red that was after his Ribbit frog and broke off another one fishing a curl tail and legged lizard.I thought we did fairly good for only 2 hours on the water. The water was to murky to sight cast and the wind was giving us a hard time so all Preston did was blind cast the key points of the grass line and pockets. If we had spent the day we may have done fairly well but we were just looking at conditions this evening. Hopefully next weekend we can spend more time on the flats.
Tight lines, Capt. Michael Rector
