Crashing The Boards

Castaway Lodge Seadrift Report

We've been cooling things off a little with some hot wade fishing of late taking solid stringers to full limits on Trout and Redfish of late. Broader mid-bay structure remains buried in turbid freshwater with the back lakes and shoreines remaining the go to locations. Historically, we've cleared the worst flooding within 4 weeks and while we're starting to see some minor circulation and saltwater mixing, we're going to need a wind shift and some big tides to get things back on track over mid-bay structure.

That means we'll be looking for September cool fronts and northerly wind shifts to open things up a bit. We're liking the prospects for wind shifts and managed to hit the fish hard on light to moderate northerly flows a week and a half ago. That was a catalyst the broke up schools of tight lipped Redfish and bended the boards for Capt. Chris Cady on recent airboat trips. In Southerly directions we're picking the pockets of Redfish bumping and running through scattered fish laying up in ambush mode.

Alligator, Teal, Dove, Cast & Blast
