After the tide fiasco yesterday, Millertime and I went down to HM to fish the last of the incoming tide. We got to the landing and it was pretty dry, but we managed to get out of the main creek. I landed a keeper trout on the third cast, so that erased the weekend skunk. We crawled out to the flats and looked for reds in 8-12 inches of water with no luck. Went to one of the deeper creeks with the same result.

Finally around 3:00 the water started coming in and the trout picked up in a hurry. I did end up with a 21 inch male, which is a personal best. I caught 10 or so around one of the outer bars. Millertime made his way over and landed a fat upperslot red.

Not the best fishing day ever, but it was a nice end to a slow fishing weekend.

Here are a couple of the trout.
