Go back out late, and it is gorgeous. 5pm and the water was slick and green. I think it was the calmest I've ever seen it. Bait jumping everywhere on the south end. Got on a late trout bite. Not a limit, but lots of fatties. Attached a cooler shot.

Saturday was crazy windy like others have side. Went out late trying t catch the late tide. 20+ wind out of the SW. Hit the marsh inside the ship channel south of Joe's Cove. Picked up a few nice reds and specks. Ended up catching several hogs around 24" but just a few trout. It was tough fishing. Pretty much all of our fish were caught on dark colored plastics. Either norton eels or Queen Cocohoes.

Tough trip from Texas, but got a few gallons to bring back for a fish-fry.

thats ma man!! BAY STEALTH BABY!
