PI Reds
 

Fished Pecan Island this past Friday. There were very light winds, and the water in the marsh is starting to clean up nicely. Got on a school of reds early in the morning, but the action slowed very fast. Went back out around 4 in the evening, and got on a good topwater bite, and proceeded to have topwaters mangled by these big reds. All fish were released.

Reds on topwater is awesome,what part of pecan island are you fishing?

We were fishing on Rockefeller Refuge.

Fishing the ponds? Im dont know that area very well,do you think i can get back there in a 17 foot whaler,it drafts about 10-11".

Boat
 

Um, the water is pretty low right now because of the lack of rain this summer, so I highly doubt you could fish the ponds in that boat. These fish were caught in 2 feet of water. Now you could fish the big canals in that boat.

is this reachable by kayak?

Kayak
 

You would be in for a very long paddle if you were to leave the landing in a kayak.

hmmm
