Been so busy busting tarpon on the fly I haven’t spent to much time on the reds, but with the ocean lighting up from hurricane Danielle it’s back inshore. Steve L and I started off with clods and light winds and some nice shots at triple tail, had one hooked up on fly and he came unbuttoned.  Same thing with a nice red, Checked the hook, looked good.  Just bad luck I suppose.  After the wind picked up we began to struggle a bit.  Having a few shots but not hooking up we decided to head to a top secret location.  Holly!@#$  the fish were running up and down the bank busting baits!!  We managed 5 fish out of the flat and had a blast watching.  At one point we had groups of 5 to 10 fish all the way down the flat with their backs out of the water.  Skinny water fishing at it’s finest
