May 22, 2008 -Today was 4 boats, and 4 easy limits of reds for all of our customers. David and Anna Sawyer fished with Capt. Mike, and Billy and Ethel Prescott joined Capt Joe . Both parties left Victoria Inn dock at 6am with redfish on their minds .Nice limits of reds plus a few more, only keeping a few for dinner and releasing the rest to fight another day. Spinner baits and shrimp under a cork produced all of the fish. They are both back on the water with the same parties tomorrow, and hoping for the same results.

Today was Day 2 with the Texas bunch. The guys decided to switch guides from yesterday to mix it up. Today Tom landed his largest redfish ever on the trip. Both groups again ended the day with the easy limits of fish, and kept just a few for dinner and also released the rest for another day. My crew was done at noon and headed to the dock just before the weather broke. Capt. Barry arrived 45 minutes later, only getting a little wet. Two great days of red fishing, what else can you do on these windy days, but that's what they wanted anyway. Spinner baits were the hot bait once again, (purple and chartreuse H&H cocahoes) but we did catch one on topwater. Jan's cooked up some of their catch for dinner last night and the guys said it was awesome. 3 boats out again tomorrow if the weather holds. Thanks everyone, for the fun fishing the last 2 days.
