7/31 Pretty Good, Bad Day

Back at the homewaters the fish were not acting like they were in Venice.  With clear skies and relatively light winds you would think it would be an easy day. Well the fish were not moving like they have been. The water has warmed a little since last week and the clarity was very poor. With only a handfull of shots, about 10-15, these guys made the most of it. Caught 2 broke one off and missed another.

Tide – Falling all day due to NNW wind

 

Water Temperature – HOT! 87-90

 

Wind – 10-15

I had a great time fishing the Faus Pas fishing Rodeo With Brock and his Mom Stacey. All three days we caught a ridiculous amount of fish. Brock is by far the best junior angler I have ever seen. Although we didn’t catch any good Tournament fish Brock still said it was the “the best three days of his life.” Probably the best review I have gotten so far.

Tide – Rising in the mornings falling in the afternoon

 

Water Temperature – We were fishing Venice so the river water kept it a little cooler 83-85

 

Wind – 0-15

 

Sun – Mostly Cloudy the first day and half of second, cleared up third day

Water Visibility – 6-10 Cleared up on the falling tide.

 

Morning Redfish Action

Moon and I hit the water early to try and get some action before the heat became unbearable.  Well lets just say we got what we were looking for. Sneak peak of summer footage

More Heat = Less Active Fish

Fished the usual areas yesterday. The wind shifted out to the north which is good if it can get some water out of the marsh.  Seems lately with these higher waters the schooled fish have broken up and spread out.  Although we still saw around 40-50 fish today the majority of those fish were extremely spooky. But classic redfish there is always a few that will cooperate.
