I fished today with Jeff Austin of Texas Tops. Jeff and I were pre-fishing for this weekend's Texas Trout Series and it was a tough stick. We did not find what we were looking for, however lucky for us we brought along some Devil Eyes so that we could at least get our lines streched.
At first, we just waded through the chosen spot, which was actually the same spot where I had full-packed actions the other day. But now it was such a dead spot for fishing except for the single wandering mullet. Jeff made his first cast with the 1/4 oz Truloc on an Amber Devil Eyes. No red was hooked up unfortunately. I did my casts of Amber as well. The first throw was also empty but after several minutes, I got my first 18" Speck for the day. After a few more minutes, we decided to move to another spot.
The water was cleaner on the second spot so I decided to use Dark Strawberry Blue Devil Eye. Jeff then made use of the white stink bait and tried baiting. We continued with the training and some more practicing of catching trout away from the boat, but after some time, we got no trout.
As we waded through the area, we both decided to go to the other side but we needed to use the boat so we can reach the other side, and so Jeff initiated to get the boat and he brought it back to the spot.
We continued wading through the deep water to the other side. We checked for the right spot by measuring the depth through a rod. Then we were able to find a spot and I tried casting a lure and got myself a fat redfish. Shortly, I saw Jeff casting his Devil Eyes and he got one too. After some time we both got some more redfish.
When the fishing is tough the Devil Eyes are a great go to lure. We used a 10-11 O'Clock tripple bounce with a 5 second pause and just repeated that on every cast. Remember that when the fishing gets tough to use a bait you belive in, form a pattern and your bite will come.
