Enjoyable day on the river

Post by Gibby3474 »

Enjoyed the river today. Caught snook to 29 inches, redfish to 22, bass, gar and bluegill. Action wasn't fast, but the result was quality fish.
Top lure was a D.O.A. 4-inch jerk worm on a 1/16-ounce jig head and a Storm Kickin' Stick. Had one half-hearted swat at a topwater. The racoon fell for a clam fly.

Excellent photos. What type of camera were you using to get those shot?
All you need is ignorance and confidence and the success is sure.

A redo today. Caught snook, bass, gar, and ladyfish. Steve added to the tally with a redfish. I need to get back to the flats where I can keep up with him once and a while. He outfishes the hell out of me on the river.
