Whoever coined the saying "wind from the east, fishing the least" obviously wasn't fishing on the St. George flats this morning. After a slow trip yesterday our Stripers really turned on today...Fishing on the flats today during the bottom of the tide payed off huge. We found big stripers lying in wait in less than 3 feet of water...and lots of them!!! Big, fat, happy Stripers!!! We landed over a dozen chunky fish between 29 and 36 inches and had twice that amount of missed strikes and hook ups...all these fish were very lazy and eating up on top....the highlight was a 36" fish that ate one of my red & white "hollow tail" gurglers. Hopefully what we found this morning will be the new trend.
Most of the fish were caught in less than 3 feet of water and some were caught in as little as a foot and a half. A stealthy drift was critical and the E/NE wind was almost perfect...any course corrections were made with the push pole.
I'm sorry about the lack of pics with the post but the location we were fishing would be too easily revealed...I don't mind sharing info...but I can't give it all away!!!
If you're looking to fish with us season...please call us soon for available dates!!! We are taking reservations daily. Don't forget to ask about our evening blitz trip...It's becoming a guest favorite!!!Capt. George Harris
