Hunting And Fishing By Jim Nelson
After an early morning squall the bay calmed and produced many speckled trout. Fishermen reported catches of four to six pounds while others added ten to fourteen pounds of dressed trout and even a tarpon near Elliott’s Reef. Local neighbors kept up a steady stream of catches on shrimp and live bait across Cedar Bayou, Dow’s Reef, and Tin Can Reef with several five to six pound fish and multiple redfish in the mix.
