Doug and I fished this am. Went to catch drum but mostly redfish wanted our drum bait. Caught this one and had to get a few pics

Hey! That used be be my favorite spot near that demagnetizer. We used to hit it in kayaks quite often.

Made a New Year’s resolution to catch more limits of trout this year. First trip out was a good start. I sure do love that thump on a Corky!

Those are some good thumpers. Nice work.

Fished POC this weekend one morning. Windswept point with some dingy water over a reef. Managed 2 reds and a trout. Spent most our time chasing ducks though.

We took my friends old El Pescador & the wives out to the jetties Saturday for some line tugging Sheephead action, I hate cleaning those suckers but whatever makes them happy, we boxed 20 of them for some fish taco ingredients.

Even saw a couple airboats stuck this weekend.
One of them had 7 duck hunters on it stuck on that sandbar at the T from Mitchells Cut to Saluria Bayou. Not sure why he didn't have everyone get off of the boat so he could try & get it to break loose.

Put on a grind yesterday… we caught lots of 15” trout about 40-50 of them and managed to get a 19 and 22” as well. All trout were on soft plastic either on a drop off or scattered shell/grass.

We found some good reds at about 2pm shallow on mud bottom but only got 1 to eat.

Back at it again this morning.

We sat in duck camp Saturday watching boats run into the flats and park themselves, usually entertaining. One boat launched all three guys out, one of them doing the scorpion in the mud. No kill switch so engine was shooting mud way up in the air, driver jumped back in real quick and shut her down. I offered to tow them out but they had some strong backs and were able to push out.

And you dont have a youtube channel for this??????????

We've honestly talked about it, happens every time there's a consistent North for a bit and get super low tides. Guys just follow their GPS and miss that twisty little cut there not understanding there's a foot less water I guess. It feels rude to sit there filming though so we don't. I've snuck a couple of pictures after the fact over the years.

If they aint smart enough to figure out there is less water then they deserve to be filmed

lol yall are mean. I've parked a boat a time or two so I've been on the other end. I will, however, attempt to be attentive and catch one on film next time the scenario is ripe for it... for TBH H20 crew.

The closest I came to parking one was dimi john island. BUT, it wasnt the waters fault. It was the shiner lights fault Had it been POC and not the muddy areas of bastrops the outcome would have been different.

I had a little Alumacraft 1756 that identified as a Shallowsport. Let's just say I used to love to learn new waters by pushing the limits on that thing. The great thing about it though was I could just push it off by myself because it was so light, that thing was a great learning tool. I parked my old Boatright hard one night near Pass Cavallo, flounder gigging around 2am or so and decided I didn't wanna go around. I knew better but for some reason went for it anyway, jack plate quit on me about halfway up and we came to a solid stop. I hopped out to assess and realized it wouldn't have mattered anyway because the tops of my feet didn't even get wet for probably 50 yards. There was no budging this boat, wouldn't rock or move in any way bow or stern and we're on hard sand. I looked up the tide chart and saw it was still going out so there's no waiting for water, went ahead and called in the Sign N' Glide tow and kicked back and waited.
