Met up with MR2Fish this morning at Ft Fisher at 7:30, well 7:45 because I forgot my wallet at my house. Got my yak all ready to launch and Steve was waiting for me already in the water. Went to launch my yak and got a treble hooked on the back of my shorts. I managed to unhook myself without undressing so I took it as a good sign.

Paddled out and the fishing started out really slow. After a couple of hours Steve had 1 legal flounder and I had caught my first legal trout at 17inches. Steve went to strech his legs at an oyster bar and on my way to catch up to him I caught a red. We started casting from the bar and quickly started to catch fish. I caught four or five and Steve I think caught 2. Started fishing our way back towards the ramp and I caught one more short trout. Great day out there today. It was good to meet you Steve.

Im probably gonna head out again tommorow afternoon if anyone is interested.

Sounds like a great trip, glad the hook missed any "vital" parts. Thanks for the report!

Awesome to hear. Where was the flounder caught???

 

[MR2Fish]

Was a great day. Thanks to straps57 for showing me around and good luck on landing that job.

I caught the flounder drifting out just below the oyster bar where we caught the reds.
