FLOUNDER AND TROUT
7-6-2011--Only had one fisherman today, the male half of the catch and release duo from yesterday. He wanted to target redfish today. While we were cleaning fish yesterday we were told about redfish rodeos that had been going on in Big Bayou startling early in the morning. I told my customer that often when I chase such stories it turns out to be a wild goose chase. Anyway, we went there this morning for redfish. We were the first boat in position but were soon joined by 7 others, three of which we could have thrown a bait into. It was obvious it was right place for the rodeo but someone forgot to tell the redfish. So we had a rodeo with no bulls. My fisherman caught one keeper flounder and that was the only fish we saw caught. We gave up about 8:20 and went elsewhere. I'm sure the reds started feeding sometime but we only had a four hour charter and couldn't afford to stay longer. We did get into more flounder and good size trout. Picture is of the fish kept for dinner.
