Corky bite has been on hold for us of late with a heavy waterfowl schedule and not a lot of fishing. Capt. Chris Cady is working North today on Redfish and Blue Catfish with boat fishing guests after a blistering session on the guns this morning. Success on waterfowl is heavily dependent on pressure, scouting, and weather this season. Capt. Braden Proctor visited the Lubbock area over Christmas and said the farmers up there have never seen so much rain. It's got hundreds of thousands of acres flooded up and holding waterfowl. Of course, that's just the tip of the proverbial waterfowl iceberg with every State from here to Florida inundated by record rainfall.
Widely scattered birds and plenty of ducks capable of concentrating on private flooded property and away from pressure has the handcuff's on a lot of hunters. We're finally seeing Redhead's show up in numbers and they're "just in time, but very late indeed". Sometimes you've got to do the pain to get the gain and I certainly hope breeding and nesting grounds are flush with copious amounts of rainfall for a great hatch this Spring. We shall see about that. Check out our Photo Gallery
Hats off to the Captain's of Castaway Lodge and all the members of The Wolf Pack for tremendous effort and team work thus far this season. We've got a very heavy schedule through the end of January.
