Well Lox was tough as nails for me again Saturday afternoon. I went west to the flats and was my first time to fish those flats and found nice 3-4 feet of nice water with sparse grass. I managed 1 dink and lost another dink and had several bites that never connected. I was throwing a Speedworm on top like a buzzbait.

I really liked the water back there and will have to spend more time there. I went back to the boat ramp area around 5:30pm and fished there to no avail. I was stopped by a game warden who was kinda rude. He checked everything in my boat. He did tell me that someone fishing West caught a 7 and a 8lber. Not sure if he meant west in the flats where I was or in the canal on the west side?

Anyway, right before I left around 7pm or so I had a awesome bite on my speedworm and could tell the fish was big but of course I somehow didn't get a good hookset in it and it came loose. Wind was absent today and the bite was tough for me.

there was a tourney on Sunday. Any results out there??

THERE WAS NO TOURNY---JUST A BUNCH OF THE BEST ANGLERS HAVING SOME FUN

Slow that lure down Keith. Try fising as slow as you possibly can and see what happens.

You are probably right BFM. I should slow down. I guess I get locked into one thing sometimes that works and of course I love a top water bite. I am sure a wacky rigged trick worm would get me a few bites in those flats? I also tossed a swimbait around too.

Thanks for the heads up.

Keith,
Tried to reply to your UB mail but your inbox was full. Email me an alternate email address.

Fished Lox on Saturday with a buddy from 6:30 A.M. to noon. Fished the area from 8 mile marker to 10 mile marker, and caught around 15 fish the best 5 would have went around 22 lbs best fish was a little over 7 lbs. One fish was caught on a rattle trap and it was 4+lbs. All the other fish were caught on yum worms. Try fishing the worm real slow in about 4 ft of water, the bite was so soft you could hardly tell the fish was on you would just see the line move.

Bob thanks for the info. I fish that area allot too just wanted to try some flats fishing. Seems like better fish for me are in the canals. Has that been everyone's experience too?

I sent you an email Al.

Best anglers ? please name some names !!!!!!!!!!
