Full Moon Trout Bite - 08/08/17 04:18 PM
Mission was to scout for some trout and see what was up with the tides with Hurricane Franklin hitting the Yucatan peninsula today.
Tides were wishy washy again this morning - and the wind was playing the same tune.
Light west wind greeted us under a Full Moon this morning.
Tide was a light and incoming and trout bite was steady but few keepers - picking up a trout here and there.
Finally located a school with some keepers in it and all the sudden I had a wind shift and I am casting against a north wind and the tide starts going with it.
Ohhh well, I had strung a few keepers so I worked my way back in and picked up a couple more.
Trout bite only this morning, cleaning fish by 9 am and it's a pretty good rain right now as I am typing.
Bring on lunch ... and bring on some more tide from Hurricane Franklin when it gets on the other side of the Yucatan.
