Another "Truth" about fishing reports......

On any given day.....some boats may find a good bite somewhere and catch lots of fish. Then others can try all over and only catch a few trout.

Timing is really important.

A few years ago, I along with about 8 other boats started of fishing the Long Point reef just after daylight. I had been catch tout there in the past few weeks. After about 30 minutes the boats started leaving. I stayed there for about an hour.....hoping the fish would bite after the other boats had left. Finally I left to fish else where.

Then a couple of days later while in a sporting goods store, I heard a guy telling about how many trout he had caught at Long Point a couple of days ago. He had gone to Long Point about an hour after I had left.

Now to be fare......"Long Point" reef is a big area and we could easily have been fishing a half mile apart.
