Thanks!! This time of year the Gulf is reel clear in shallow water and with the temps getting near 80 degreez the bite should continue to improve.....Have a great weekend!!

Thanks Rob!! There's a lot of power in those spotted broom tails...and I really enjoy a tow around the back country.....LOL!! 2 hours earlier that same Hawk flew reel close from the south right by me while I was running a creek....It was too late to get that up close footage that I've been able to capture in the past.....Sea Ya!!

Thanks Thomas!! These big broom tail Redfish will drag you all over the back country and with all the nasty rock bottom and mangroves you really have to keep up the pressure or say goodbye to the plastic!!

Thanks Dave!! I really enjoy going up the coast before daylight or about 3 hours before Sunset.....And these cloudless dayz can really throw up some reel bright colors.....Have a great holiday weekend!!

Thanks Ryan!! If it weren't for the ripples I'd almost be able to sight cast in the crystal water!! I'm hoping this surface blasting continues as the water warms.....Enjoy the holiday weekend!!

Thanks Dug!! The skinny water can be a reel eye opener in the spring and intimidating to those that are not use to the clarity.....All the bottom structure is in plain sight just waiting to grab your lower unit.....LOL!! I'm just starting to find some of the big boyz and girlz that are willing to tow me all over the creeks.....Enjoy your weekend!!

Thanks Titus!! Spot on Titus.....I'm getting to live and enjoy my life as I choose ....I've only got one life to live and I'm trying to Max everything out until my ticket gets punched.....Hope you and your Family have a wonderful Easter!!

Thanks Wayn!! The bite has been improving as the inshore waters warm up....I know fishin' is improving when the locals start chewing on top water plugs....Have a great Easter holiday!!

Thanks Rande!! That gal had some horse power behind that broom tail especially when I'm being towed all over the creek.....LOL....You and the family have a great Easter!!

Thanks Martin!! Nothing like being able to pick the best weather dayz in the Refuge and these late afternoon trips are usually some of the best that I have in regards to beauty and the beasts.....LOL.....Enjoy the weekend!!

Thanks Ron!! Get me on the salt early or late and with great weather I can really enjoy runnin' and flippin' this huge coastal area and I take advantage of every minute that's made available to me......Have a great weekend!!

Thanks Greg!! Where have all the biggins' been this winter.....From Dinks to Beasts in the Bushes....LOL....I really enjoy being towed around the back country....LOL....Have a great weekend!!

LSJ.....Thanks!! I'm finding more Reds and I've lost a few small snook...... And as far as trout is anyone's guess!! Just finished up mounting a new Yamaha 25 HP 4 stroke on the skinny boat with electric start.....No more yankin' and crankin'.....LOL....I've been waiting for the weather to change and this weekend is the ticket right up to dark!!

@@WesLovelace Nice. Once I got older I swore that I'd never own a 2-Stroke engine on anything bigger than a chainsaw ;op

@@longstrangejourney4776 I tried to yak this 4 stroke and all I did was yank my arm out....I'm even using one of these small 230 Amp tractor batteries.....Starts like a breezze!!😎

Thanks John!! The bigga the betta....It's about time the Beasts started chowing down on the plastics!!

DMP....Thanks!! I really enjoy being towed all over the back country and with all the lime rock that I was over I was waiting for the other shoe to fall

Thanks!! This Redfish was just barely legal and would make a great dinner along with some fries.....Makes me hongrey just thinkin' about it.....LOL!!

Thanks Larry!! They have all been dinks.....Seems the big boyz and big galz are starting to get into the mix.....Trying to test out my new 25 hp 4 stroke this weekend....Sea Ya!!

EA Thanks!! It's a Skitterwalk with a set of 4X VMC red trebles.....I change out all of my new baits rather than use the originals.....I use a lot of size 4's and 6's......Have a great Easter weekend!!

@WesLovelace very smart! I knew it booked like a skitter just the hooks threw me off.. happy Easter my friend!

Thanks Lee!! I'm using 10 lb. Ande Tourney Green Mono on the reel and 30 lb. Ande Tourney Green Mono as leader....I've been using this set up for a long time....Every once in a while a Snook will get the better of me.....Trying to try out the new 4 stroke 25 Yamaha this weekend!!
