Brother Randy and I tractor launched from Russos at 9. Made a few stops in Franks for nada.  Outgoing tide, some cloud cover, light winds.

Ran west of Broad slough and pieced together a pattern. Chrome blue rattle traps and big hammers. Lots of weeds to clean off your lure but that’s where they wanted it.

5 ft  of water or less was where they wanted it. Hot fish and hard strikes. Around 3 PM we headed into center of Sherman. Several large fish hooked there on the Delta Wood Bombers 8 inch white chartruese but aggressive drag settings freed them. SHerman was holding fish for sure.

The bulk of the run is still west. Franks was dead on the way back.
