I Fished Port O'Connor Friday.

Took the day off to check POC, and make a video for my youtube channel since the winds were forecast to be single digit for the day.

The reds were there in good numbers, but the water was so low I couldn't get into my normal spots,. I just spent the day checking out the shorelines.

That paid off with 8 slot reds, including my first double hookup with both being in the slot.

I got some footage on the gopro. Here's a link to the video. https://youtu.be/eWgIIFTR8xU

All were released. #CPR

Damn that looks like fun. I haven't been to poc since October and am itching to get back.

Love the pictures and video. What type of camera and head gear mount are you using?

The camera is gopro hero 5 black with a polarizing lens mounted on it. My head hear is just an old hat that I mounted a gopro bracket on with a bolt.

They don't make a decent lens mount for the hero 5 yet, so I made my own out of aluminum.

Here's my hat mount with my old hero 3.

Excellent report and great photos. A buddy fished POC last Friday also and hammered reds on his solo skiff. I wanted to do the same yesterday and today but the howling winds kept me from venturing out on the solo skiff.
