started off with a bad morning with a dead battery. babaloo had came over and offered to give me a ride on his HO. We launched from clear lake park and from their we rode to moses bayou. it was a real smooth morning, got to moses bayou and tried drifting wasnt really getting much action but we kept at it. babaloo was the first to hook up with a small flounder on a gulp shrimp. After a while we finally figured it out and we started to use the depth finder and found a nice drop off. then after that we did alright, we ended the day with 3 keeper flounders 1 at 16 2 at 18. and 2 keeper speckle trout. all were caught on gulp swimming mullet pearl.

i do have videos and when ever i get some time ill upload those and post them up :) cant wait till spring !

oh and in the video because it took me so long to even catch one flounder it ate up my memory card so i had to do clips thinking and hoping when id get a bite !

You're right. We were talking about how dirty the water was. Water temp was near 58F. Ended up losing the net on the ride home. Time to upgrade :D
It was the first time I had ever used the depth finder to find fish. It was pretty cool to be able to find the drop off in the bay and and drift over it. I'd definetly go back for more flounder. I'm going to have to add the mullet pearl to my stock.
The wind picked up later in the day. The ride home wasn't as pleasant as the ride in. We got a bit wet. We also got a ton of lookers as we rode past Kemah boardwalk.
You better post the video from your Go Pro Cam!!!
