1335513354133531335113352Got out this am from about 8-11, tide was high incoming, water 70's, wind blowing 20 or so. Found birds working small schools of reds in the back of west bay marsh. Ended up with four reds on the fly all keeper size largest was 24". Saw 2 pods tailing the rest were chasing bait. All fish caught were in small schools of 5-10. Singles were hard to spot with the white caps in the marsh. Saw quite a few redfish but had trouble getting a cast with the flyrod from the kayak with a 20+ mph wind. Just had a hard time slowing the kayak down while casting. Kept one for dinner, his belly FULL of small shrimp.
