What a day!! Started out throwing tops in the morning in acres and acres of mullet in 3-6 ft of water. Catching solid 3-4 pounders! They shut off about 10:30 AM. They were still slicking like crazy but they wouldnt bite. Went to another area in 2.5 to 3.5 ft of water about 11:30 and still slicking but they wouldnt bite. Then i noticed a school of jacks going crazy and my dumba$$ decides to throw a corky in teh middle of them. An hour later I am out in the middle of the bay and this thing is still going! But I finally just crank my drag down and decide I am either going to land this fish or break off because my arm hurts. So I finally net it and release it and then I notice the birds. 4 or 5 sets all with dinks under them. i only fished them for a half hour until I hooked a seagull and decided that I knew where I was taking my clients tomorrow. Good day for sure especially since the wind was only about 15 mph by midday. Which is like heaven compared to the last 4-5 weeks. Water was still dirty but cleaning up little by litle as that incoming tide came in and the wind laid down. Tight lines to all and remember to take a kid fishing!!

I fish every part of the complex. West Bay, East Bay, Trinity bay, burnett bay, Tabbs Bay, Upper and lower Galveston bay, Clear lake and San luis pass. The only part of teh bay sytem I really dont know is Christmas bay. I could use some schooling on how to fish that bay!! since this is teh west end anglers club I may have to hook up with someone who can show me that part of the bay system and how to navigate and fish it

Man, I've never caught fish throwing into mullet. Then again, I was usually too busy netting mullet for dinner :D Stooopid Coonarses.

Anytime that your flap opens, there's a strong possibility that a load of crap will soon be spewing out of said hole!
