I managed to get out of work early today, well 1/2 a day off to watch a tree surgeon take a big tree out of my yard. At any rate he was gone by 3:00 so I put my kayak in the water in Piney Creek in Tall Timbers. I paddled up the river to the entrance of the little marina of the Landings at Piney Point where I caught a handful of white perch the biggest being about 10 1/2 inches on a beetle spin. It looked like rain so I headed back to the creek mouth trolling the beetle spin along the way. I caught a bunch more perch. Once I got into the creek I cast against the rip-rap on the entrance and trolled along the grass banks. I probably caught between 1 or 2 dozen perch. I drifted for croaker/flounder on the outgoing tide using Gulp Blood Worms to no avail. (I am not convinced that Gulp is better than bait.). At any rate I spent I nice couple of hours on the water. Nothing great to report but it was nice.
I was hoping I'd see blues breaking, catch a puppy drum, or some small rock but all I got was perch. Still it was better than work
