Fishing Report:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tough condions the past two days down in Venice. But when its tough, the tough get going!
On Friday I entertained LA Sportsman writer John McQueen. ANd entertain I think is waht we did. I brought along my dad, brother and cousin....not many dull moments with this group. Not many dull moments with the fish either!
From start to finish, it was NON STOP redfish action. Even though the SW Pass gauge was showing 21-26knt the entire morning, we caught fish after fish. Kept our limit of smaller ones and released no telling how many more. It was text book high river, late winter downriver fishing, but you'll have to wait until next March to get all the secrets when the Sportsman come out.
ON Saturday I had paying customers, so where do you thinkI went! Well the wind ws still 21 out of the NE even though the forcast was for FAR less. Undetered we took off with yesterdays catch in my mind.
We pulled up to my little whole and BAM fish on. Caught 4 in a row and then NOTHING! I MEAN NOTHING! ZILCH! At 12pm I had 6 reds in the box and my head was raw from all the scratching! Finally I anounced, 'I've got a wild hair'. I went back to my original location but moved about 100 yards around the point, and where I havent fished before. After 5 minutes nothing. After, 20 minutes, our limit was done!!! And it didnt stop. For the next hour we caught and released reds up to 36 pounds. 4 over 30 and 4 over 20. Total we released another 40 fish to fight again. As we were picking up, one of my guys looked up at me and said, 'DONT YOU EVER PLUCK THAT HAIR!!!'
Both days most fish were caught on plastics under a cork in about 2 feet of water. ON Firday I did some damage on a MANNS BABY -1. Thats fun! The best thing, is that I havent seen another boat in WEEKS! I really like that....All to myself. Lots of fish this time of year, but not many fisherman.
