Old Flats 11/13
Old Flats 11/13
After a couple of cold nights I decided on Sunday to pay a visit to a highly overlooked flat close to home. The flat was barren when I arrived but the fish sort of appeared out of nowhere when the tide got low. I stuck a 22" trout on topwater and sightcasted a burly 32" red on a jerkbait. In the afternoon I relaunched in an area I haven't fished in over a year and found some snook sunning themselves on sandy shorelines. I caught a few to 25" and since the stars were aligned I finished the day off with a baby tarpon!

Great fishing trip, great report and amazing pictures.
Being out on the water in the kayak is the prize. Catching fish is the bonus.
