Three days on the water last week targeting different areas. My first trip was on the lagoon. Started off getting rained on very early. I made a short trip to my first spot to run from it for a few minutes. I had little hope of catching anything due to no bait in this area. I was right, no fish but the rain caught up with me anyway. I hit another spot and the same scenario, no bait.
My third spot was better with finally finding some bait activity. This area is a very shallow spot and with nothing showing any feeding activity I decided to throw a YO ZURI 3D Inshore surface lure “wake bait.” This lure when retrieved at a faster rate will swim just under the surface. It wasn’t long before I had two upper slot snook charge the lure but was scared away by being too close to my boat. I did manage to later catch a 24” snook and a small trout using this pattern. The next morning I fished Headwaters. Same scenario as past posts. First hour in the morning and after that time frame the bite was slower and slower. The following morning I fished 3 Forks and right away when putting the boat in the water the water was way up and had a smell to it. They were moving water into it. We never had a bite but the highlight of this morning was watching a group of guys pulling in a 11’6” gator into their boat.
Didn’t fish anymore after this day as the check engine light came on in my truck. I’m sure it will be at the dealership most of the week.
