Seadrift Bay Fishing Reports

Capt. Chris Cady lit up the fish airboating with Richard R. and guests while Capt. James Cunningham worked the fallouts with fast action on fish pushing the upper edge of the slot.

We're getting a grip on the calendar as we push "all in" into fishing now that duck season is closed. Between, you, me, the fish, and a fence post I think we're going to have to figure out where we are on the calendar "seasonality" wise.

It will be interesting to see what February holds? Is Winter finally going to kick in strong or are we going for an "Indian Spring". I'm betting on the latter and that's going to get the reels respooled immediately.

When things get tough, we get busy and it's best never to pre-judge tomorrow's results based on today's hunting or fishing. Ha, i've seen days where the fishing is on a straight B-line downhill only to hit the water the next day and have them jumping in the boat.

We've been seeing a lot of fish prowling around after duck hunts but you'd think we're looking at a mirage with light action on the rods of late.

5 STAR REVIEW: "Just left the lodge riding back to Dallas. I was invited by a buddy last minute and didn't have a clue of what to expect. The days are long but the hunts are just awesome! From nature's beauty to the great crew I'll be back for sure. Be ready to shoot some duck, catch some fish and night hog hunting! Great times!"

Pre front action over mud and grass pockets once again bent the rods hard for guests as Capt. Donnie Heath lit them up using bait lit up the Redfish to 26". I sent out a newsletter the other day telling clients to throw the "seasonal playbook" out the window and that's a great idea. The big cold front has moved a little bit of water out of the bays but we're waiting to "get all excited"

We've got to get lucky every now and then and the front arrival couldn't have been timed more perfectly. Just add a little cooperation from the birds and everything will be good. The guests had a nice hunt yesterday afternoon taking full Redhead limits on a "Diver shoot".

The ducks and blistering hot fishing pace made up for it, however. We managed a run unseen during the first split with limits coming in for our guests on all hunts.
