V Bay 7-30
 

Went out of ICY Sat afternoon for a short fishing trip and to run my buddy's new boat. Everyone pulling out at 2 didn't have squat and said the water was muddy in the bay, so we headed straight for the pass. Water looked decent in and out the pass. Headed to Tee Butte and Killed the motor South of teh ridge and started a drift. We started picking up a few here and there and anchored a couple times. The trout were real finicky and were not holding on very long. We missed a load of fish. Fished for about 3hrs and had 16 trout. Not bad for some newbies.

Nothing wrong with that bro! Did yall try any topwater? I love fishing tee butte,caught my biggest trout there.

Nice Catch .

Hey, lets stop and cast net some bait........nuthin

Lets throw a sparkle beatle at them.........fish

Go figure

Yeah get caught in a front line and get soaked on the way back to intracoastal. :shaking: When we going hit em up again....I got some gas money.

Fishin the next 2 weekends. But after that, I'm ready

nice catching! hopefully you can do it again soon!

Good thing I got a dry riding boat!!

Perfect,handles the 7 footers just like a haynie.

I ordered extra freeboard. And a helium filled Hull.....she takes waves and is super light!!!!

Sounds legit to me!!

not bad. not bad at all

That's about right, and I stayed home this weekend!:( Nice catch!:grinpimp:

Not bad at all, thats a nice catch man!

and i went all the way to big lake... still had an ok trip but would of rathered vbay

Nice catch. I've caught my biggest trout there also. 6lbs 6 oz. . about 3 years ago we hammered the big trout there for 4 days straight. Lots of 4-5 pounders caught. Tough spot to fish on the weekends with all the traffic there and sometimes it makes you wanna kill someone with their stupidity bit Monday-Thursday its pretty quite there.

Yeah the weekdays are prime out there. End of a incoming tide with a southwest wind and you can smoke em on topwater or suspending baits. About 4 years ago my boss at the time and I caught 20 over 4 pounds,it was awesome.

do you guys mainly fish around the ridge that sticks out of the water?

I like to start on the southwest side of the reef in 5-6 foot and drift to the reef that is closest to the beach. Have caught them good on the east side of the reef too just depends on the wind.
