Guys I hit the water at 7:45 and it was great. I headed towards my spot and the SW wind started to howl after about an hour. So I had to come back into the wind and it was a chore. I remember saying "wow! nice Red!" so many times, a 4' Gar was in about 5" of water and I think we both scared each other. Anyway, I went alone and decided to head back towards the landing and bottom fish. I was talking with my wife as she was on her way home and she said "its raining where I am" and I looked up and it was thunder clouds over me. Started raining on me before I could get the boat home, but maybe next time.

You got that right! It also make me not being able to wait for the next trip too. If I stay in the protected areas, I'm on the opposite side of our bay from the river mouths and they are full of grass.
