I am at Flamingo today fishing with Brian and Dave, I decided to go into the backcountry because the fishing has been good. I knew it was going to be a good day when both guys walk up with a 12 pack of beer. These guys were on a break from work and wanted to get away. We worked our way north thru a dense fog which lasted until 9 a.m.. We hit all kind of islands waiting for the fog to lift. I thought the action might of been a little better but we worked for every fish. We found some pilchards on a tree and I netted them and we started to live bait fish along with casting Rapala Shadow Raps. They wore out the Jacks Trout and Ladyfish which they were fine with but I wanted more. We hit some great areas catching Snook, Redfish more Trout and Ladyfish. They were happy and I had them throwing Rapala Skitter Walks on the incoming tide on a shallow bank. There was some blow ups on the shore line but we only managed 1 hit and hooked a Bull Shark. They said were ready to go , I was disappointed and said “how about 1 more spot”. They were done that’s always a good sign!
