11/6/09 Gulf of Mexico TUNNY IN THE WIND !
Sick,
windy, rough, northeast blow going on down here so the inshore fishing is a little difficult around low tide right now. I mean low tide this morning. When we drove out of little pass and looked accross the flat inside little gasparilla it was bone dry. Any Snook and Reds that stayed on that flat this morning are dead. I am sure the backcountry was completely dry for over an hour this morning. We headed out into the gulf in the big boat and tore the ass out of the tunny. It was a bit challenging with the wind, but I only broke one rod and smashed into the T-top twice..
The surface feeds in the rough water were unbelievable. They were running the bait down the waves and charging on the surface turning the water white for hours. We brought the 14 weight for the blacktips but we never really had any that stayed around. We saw a couple chasing down the tunny and also saw one go airborn right in the middle of a spanish mac blitz but never really saw them hanging out...
