 Posted: Sun Feb 16, 2014 9:28 am Post subject: 2-16-2014 Baffin Bay Wade-Report |
 |
|
Pre Report: I am loaded up and headed out to Baffin Bay right now. From what I understand the weather is going to be nice and hopefully cooperate this time. I am going to start my wade at the Williamsons Pier area and if nothing happens there, I will probably take a wade by the Salt Mines. I will post my results when I get back. I bought some Gulp "New Penny" shrimp and I am going to give those a whirl.
Final Report: I decided to check out the place they call the "Salt Mines". I got all my gear together. I bought some nice waders awhile back and finally decided to use them. When you start to wade out you are facing south. There is a private pier to the east and a beach to your west. I waded out about 60 yards and started throwing a popping cork with that gulp shrimp for a while. The water was fairly choppy with the wind blowing pretty good sometimes. After about 30 cast I landed a 18" trout. She swallowed my lure pretty good so I decided to keep her. Walked the shoreline to the west and got 3 more that I didn't even measure. So I changed it up to a "Nuclear Chicken"..hell of a name....and threw 3 cast and hooked up another pretty girl 17" trout. After that I walked the shore line back to the car and went to the old "Drum Point" It's blocked off now due to littering but you can still park and the roads end and walk down the shore line. I waded out there and about 20 yards out the bottom gets so muddy I was sinking past my knees so I threw a couple cast and decided to call it a day with my two fish and go home. The filets are on the smoker right now......
