The beginning of last week proved to be the peak of fishing action for trout, reds, and flounder. Then mid-week monsoon rains put the kabawsh on the action. As of Sunday, the fishing action still hasn’t improved, but night-shift anglers had some good to great action. Hopefully this weeks flushing tides will clear the bad water out and bring the sandy green back in and with it the finger mullet and shad which attracts the gamefish.
