Rainy Saturday At Tidelands

[ship 4 brains]

Pretty windy morning. I paddled out about 300 yards off the bridge and the wind blew me back to the golf course in a few minutes. I caught this little flattie right off the beach next to the golf course.



I paddled out to the same spot off the bridge, it is where the bottom drops off about 10 feet, between the 9 and 10 column about 300 yards off the bridge.

The wind blew me under the bridge real quick. Each time, a little spottie hit just on the other side of the bridge.





This went on for 3 more drifts and 3 more spotties. The wind was blowing me so fast that I had to paddle back to the starting point every time.

Then all of a sudden it started pouring. The rain came down hard for about 10 minutes. After that, the wind stopped, the water was glassy smooth, and the bite stopped.



I sat in still water for another hour with nothing doing, and went home, cold, wet and happy.
