I decided to sleep in this morning and try my luck in the afternoon. Hit the water about 2pm and began to paddle. Arrived at my first spot and first cast landed a 19inch red. My first thought was its gonna be a good day. But after an hour i began to think otherwise. Ended up catching another 18inch red and a dink trout. On my way back i decided to try a creek i tried earlier that came up empty. By now it was 4 and the tide was dead low but the creek i was in holds more water then the rest of the area. so i was confident there would be fish. As i was pushing towards the back of the creek, i heard a small bust on the edge. My first instinct was it was probably a sting ray or small trout . But i casted over to it and boy was i wrong. The cork instantly took off and i new it was a decent red. That was until he realized he was hooked.haha He started peeling drag out and i was holding on for the ride. anyways, after a long fight i pulled in my new pb red 31 in red!!! :cheers:

RBF......VERY NICE redfish, and congrats on your PR/PB!! :cheers:

You worked that little creek perfectly knowing that the deeper water you would be in "should" be holding some big fish waiting to head back into that feeder creek once the tide started to come back in.....GREAT STUFF!!

Great fish. Those big reds can really pull. I bet you had a big smile on your face when you got that brute in the boat.
