It’s been looking like a Frogg Togg fashion modeling expose’ here lately with folks bundled up to brave the elements. I’ve been toting about 4-5 layers myself including Under Armor; long sleeve T; Fishing Shirt; Windbreaker; and waterfowl jacket; breathable buff/facemask; and breathable UA beenie and peeling the layers as opportunity arises.
This weekend provided no exception to the fashion show and the rain made it even more exciting. A misting drizzle fueled our resolve to get on the fish quickly. One of the guys on my boat said “man I thought this was going to suck, sitting in the cold and rain, while not catching a darn thing”. We let the rods do the talking.
Measured Move
Saturday’s rain also coincided with some pretty big winds out of the East and quite a bit of additional tide. Fish moved up out of the holes onto the flats very near deeper water for one of the first times this Spring. Mud/Grass pockets on these adjacent deep water flats and swales near the pockets produced World Class results.
On the mid coast we have a lot of protected back marsh and shallow bay environs that set-up uniquely to Spring fishing and heavy weather. Many parts of the coast do not enjoy this luxury.
