Fished near GISP in the early AM. The plan was to get my first topwater-trout of the season. Didn't connect with any but I did get just enough action to keep using the spook jr. Two blow ups: One was just a half rod-length away, close enogh to see the yellow mouth and dots. The other was the kind of heart-stopping blow up where the whole 20"+ fish leaves the water and you yank the top far away even though you know better :(. Man I forgot how much fun topwaters are.

Switched to a gulp jerk and caught a nice 18" flattie before I left at 10am.

Spring is here again.

Nice report Yan! If you'd like to come over Friday, Saturday or Sunday your welcome to stop by hangout fish with us etc... Not sure of your plans with the lady but if you can find time we'll put your yak on the Gator-Tail or Shoalwater and cruise to some new areas...

Caz,
I'm down to fish some time. I'll let you know next time I go out.

Robalo,
Were ya'll on the inside or outside of the geotubes? I was fishing towards the open water. I saw a boat heading into the geotubes as I was loading up my yak and was wondering if it was yall's when I read your other post.

Coe,
I think I will try to work Saturday and fish Sunday. Thanks for the offer, I'll hit you up this weekend and let you know.

I fished GISP Tuesday afternoon for a bit. A few small bumps and one barely keeper flounder that jumped out of the boat. I saw two other yakkers that were drifting inside the geotubes, and one had a strung fish.
