Catching more fish
Catching more fish
The only thing I can put my finger on with having more success lately catching fish is time spent on the water. Earlier this year I was tired of watching other fishermen and women catching upper slot Redfish, yellow mouth Trout and flounder. I just am more comfortable catching fish now. As the conditions changed I just was not comfortable with my choice of locations. In other words I had no clue. As I type this I also realize the next time I go fishing could be a bust, but not every trip.

Tom, you seem to be one of the fishiest guys around
Sometimes just have to pay dues to be there for phenomena like blackwater.

Re: Catching more fish
You should watch more YouTube videos like I do when I cannot fish. I think I have seen all the fishing, flounder, offshore, and inshore YouTube has to offer so I wait for the new videos to get more knowledge. I have learned more from videos and forums then I do when I go out alone. I use the tactics and locations to better plan a good fish catching trip. I hate being skunked!

Re: Catching more fish
Tom, some more -
big sow trout are wonderful to catch, but we really should release them, because taking their meat is a waste of their breeding potential. A 16" trout is the best fillet the coast has to offer, next to flounder.
Redfish - a few slot or even close reds in a morning is a complete morning, because they're all about fighting their shoulders.

Glad you're finding 'em Tombo! They are all fun to catch but some are just downright beautiful.

Re: Catching more fish
There is much more to learn Tom... email me later and I have something for you. tobin@troutsupport.com
There is a real art to choosing where to fish for each trip and there are a lot of variables to put into that equation like tides, winds, seasonal conditions, and water conditions, even thru the day variables also matter. it's all learnable though.
