| Got up early to yak fish some docks in the sound. Loaded up the prowler and got there just before sunrise. 
I started out throwing topwater. Got a few redfish blow ups on it, but the fish were short striking. Switched to a gold spoon and that did the trick. I hooked a bull red that headed straight for and around a piling, and I somehow got over there and unwrapped the line (thank goodness for braid). I fought him for a little longer and landed him: 

Ran into what I think was a small school of reds later. I pulled a slot fish out of there: 
Both fish were released alive and healthy. What a way to start the day!

| Nice report. Where do you find most of the reds hanging out when you are fishing around the docks?

Turbow (10/5/2008) Nice report. Where do you find most of the reds hanging out when you are fishing around the docks?Scattered around. Some are tight to the docks, some are in the grass between the docks, and some are out in front of the docks.

| Roger. Thanks. I fish the sound near Hurlburt in my kayak and haven't had too much luck with good sized reds in months. There has been a lot more activity lately with flounder and specks so I am hoping a few good reds will come through.
