Got to the launch at 3am and found the wind higher than expected. I decided to wade a few hundred yards rather than launch the kayak. No luck. Went home and slept for a few hours, then went back just before sunrise.
Wind was still a little high but a 20 inch red, 17 inch trout, and an est 20 inch flounder, helped me forget about the wind. I guess I cant call it a slam because I could not get the flounder in the boat. Didn't have a net and it kept its mouth shut so I couldn't use the grippers. After trying to grab it, grip it, and lift it, the hook came out and it swam next to the kayak for a few seconds before disappearing under the boat. Caught a few more dinks before calling it a day.
The water was clear in some areas and a little cloudy in others. Flat water along the road but little chop about 50 yards out. Sunny skies, cool temps. My lure of choice was the same from the previous red dot trips. trout killer. No sock so drifting was pretty quick. Fished out of the frenzy and the red pulled me like a float.
