I have been getting some good reports over at Flagler Beach, Big trout and lots of Redfish. I finally got work squared away enough that I could squeeze an afternoon trip in Friday. The plan was to fish the last hour before dark with some topwater plugs which is my favorite way to fish.

The wind was blowing pretty hard and coming right down the river from the South. We had to fish the tail end of the incoming which is not my preferred tide but we found a little action despite the conditions. There was plenty of finger mullet around also. Bait shrimp are being caught in the area aw well.

We fished a natural creek drain that had a bunch of small drains and forks, etc. tying into it. We picked up one trout, 2 Snook and had one other fish on, that tore off. Had one other fish knock the plug completely out of the water but he somehow managed to elude all three treble hooks.

We were using a 5m18 Mirrolure. Had the tide been right I feel like we would have had some real action. We were at least able to get out of some of the wind and work some of the bugs out of the equipment in preparation for some serious fishing.

Here’s a little video from the trip…….
