Joseph's Harbor/Mermentau 7-17-11

Me and My brother decided to chance it Friday in the rain and only got hit one time with some heavy showers. We wanted some boiled crabs so we went to Joseph's Harbor in hopes that the rain did not make the water too bad. We managed 2 dozen crabs (med-lrg) but the big ones refused to bite I guess. So we headed down the road to try our luck at some reds in the Mermentau and that was even slower. We managed one nice Red right before we left and that was it. Water at both places was not as bad as I expected but still too dirty. Oh well we ate crab stew last night and bbq redfish will be on the menu shortly.
