Red October!

This is the month of change in 2010! This year the cooler temps seem to be rolling in earlier than usual, and that has the mullet on the move...which keeps the fish on the move as well. We kicked off this month fishing the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation Red-Trout Classic. This is a fun catch-and-release tournament that raises funds and awareness for a worthy cause. This year I hosted one of the sponsors Graham Medical. While the trout eluded us on tournament day, we did catch a slew of quality Redfish...

Rod bent...

With good results!


Another bent rod...


With a similar outcome!

Day 2 was a bit chillier (brrrrrrrr!) but the fish didn't seem to mind at all. We used the same tactics as day one and got all our fish from the same flats.






We stayed pretty busy this month chasing our usual fall prey, the fish have been chewing like crazy and I couldn't find a bait they would refuse! I love when they cooperate like this and it makes my job all the easier... here's a few shots from "Red October" 2010
