Got to the honey hole about 9:15 and started to drift. Water was terrible and the wind was already kicking butt. Went out to my 3-minute hole and was able to drift from there all the way to Tropic Isles. On that drift I picked up a limit of trout and probably 20 under size. Biggest was 19.5". Then I hit the shorelines looking for Reds. I got a 29" inch red. After releasing it I also got a 27 inch red. The red was filled with crabs and sand eels. Most were caught on White gulp either under a cork or with a rattle (salt shaker). By noon water was chocolate from all the winds and came in to clean fish. Supposed to be blowing the next couple of days.

Good catch, Zia! I like the different coloration on those trout. The one on the right sure has some nice spots..... _________________

| Glad we had some good weather days for spring break because the wind now isn't too much fun. |
