went out on 5/20, everything was good until the wind kicked up really high. it was rough out there! we managed to catch a few nice trout, but it was tough! used a popping cork with shrimp under it. still had a blast though.
fished on the 18th, overcast again but nice temp. i caught a couple nice keeper reds with my buddy. used some cut bait, they were hungry! wind was steady but not too bad, just perfect for casting! would do it again any day.
5/13 we hit the bay again, little worried about possible rain but it held off. the wind was crazy though! i lost a nice trout 'cause of it. but we still got some nice catches, 4 total, all between 3-5 lbs. using soft plastics worked like a charm.
had a great time on the 12th! partly cloudy and a decent breeze, perfect for fishing! landed a few reds, biggest was around 6 lbs. got them on a live croaker, they went crazy for it. I love this spot!
