Arrow V. Bay 8/7/10

Got there a little after day break (late) hit the cove, hammock, dry reef and only pulled out 2 reds and a flounder. Went out the pass to caldwell where the white trout were plentiful but small. Went out to near rigs hooked one trout right at the boat that fell off and caught a few huge gaftop. Left and heading to tee butte on the way there came across a huge school of pogies with fish busting through them so we stopped started casting and it was nothing but sharks and gaftop so castnetted some bait and went to tee bute. On the way there tried several more school of pogie with same results and the same result at tee butte. Left went to Caldwell again hoping some trout would show up and nothing, but it had good moving tide. Left and went to diamond reef on the way there saw probably 25 or so school of bait with nothing happening to them. Got to diamond and same results again gaftop and sharks and saw one tripletail. Tide was really ripping no so we went try the near rigs AGAIN still nothing but trash. Went to caldwell AGAIN and still nothing but trash and the tide was CRUISING. So after that we went back inside hitting dry reef, cove and sharks bayou with nothing to show.

We tried artis and live at every stop.

Water was pretty everywhere we went.

Not one spec came into the boat.

Highlight of the day: Dolphins doing all kinds of acrobats in the big schools of pogie. They saved the day providing awesome jumps and spins and flips and cool tricks at keeping the bait together.
