Your Fishing Report: If this is a tournament report do not state the fish’s length in this box. State the length and species in the box below | Invited by Capt. Mike Spanhel to go back into Filman Creek to hunt down some Snook and Redfish. It was kind a weird tide day, but we headed out early morning non the less. Water was pouring out big time when we anchored up to the first point – Mike hooked up immediately with a nice Snook – I followed shortly with a 30” Bonnet Shark. 45 minutes into our trip, we quickly realized the water was pouring out and we had a clearance issue with Filman Creek bottom and Mike’s skiff, the trolling motor went kaput, so we pushed and pulled our way out. So, we headed out into Sand Bay and drifted live shrimp, Trout action was steady along with pins and the rest of the usual critters. Mike did bag a nice fat Trout on a shrimp, and we lost a couple nice hook ups but just couldn’t seal the deal. Last stop was the north side of the North entrance, by then water had pretty much stopped running and winds picked up. Headed back into the dock… ‘a good time was had by all’ Thanks Captain Mike |
