Homosassa Flood Tide....

Written by 
It was day three for Mishel and Earl to join me for another full day charter and today we launched out of Homosassa. Leaving the river and arriving at the mouth to breezy south winds, I knew today we would have plenty of water to red fish. The tide was just turning at roughly 9am, so we killed a little time and caught a few Homosssa trout. We made a long drift off St. Martins Keys and the trout were there in good numbers. DOA cal shad tail and MirrOlure Lil' John did the trick and it was great action until it was red fish time. The tide was getting pushed in pretty hard by the wind and by noon, the winds were out of the west and here came the water. We were jumping point to point free lining live shrimp and cut ladyfish, but all we could come up with in one lonely red fish for the afternoon. We gave it our best and we sure covered a lot of ground today. Thank you both for a great time and here's Mishel with her Homosassa red... Capt. Dan
