Day Two: Brilliance
Day two saw a similar pattern with two
boats headed up to Milly and two boats
heading offshore and then again into the
Hutchy.
The Milly crews battled each other for
the title with each boat scoring around
70 barra for the day! The Hutchy crews
had some exceptional fishing as well
with both boats landing around 50 fish
for the day.
Highlights of this day included one of my
30
best fishing moments as Brett Hyde and I
sight fished and landed over 20 barra in
an hour in very shallow water that was
pocked with baby mangroves. It was
awesome watching the barra cruise into
a baby mangrove, then you cast over
the mangrove and jiggled the weedless
Flat Shad through the mangrove to have
the barra explode all over the lure. If
the barra missed, it would follow the
lure, repeatedly smacking it until it found
the hook. It was epic fun and the best
moments of the trip for me.
