Title: fri negative tide fishing
Post by: icthus on December 16, 2016, 03:58:59 PM
Had the day off and figured why not go fishing.  Loaded up the sled and headed to second cove.  There is a deep trough that runs between two flats and theoretically that is where the fish would be.  Well…the trout were there but the reds were not.  I did have a shot at a tailor and sucked- so he swam off.  Moved to a different spot where the wind was not as bad and waded to a tailing sheepshead, Never seen that before.  After a couple of minutes and two cast later, i got him to eat.  Not a great fight, but an epic eat.  Landed him and he went around 5 or 6 lbs.  One of the bigger sherpas I've seen around.  I start walking back to the boat thinking how I am going to cook him and poof he jumped out of my hands and he was gone. 


Merry Christmas,
Pal
