Two desks, one day

Speckled trout are the hunt — Nine Mile and the Badlands guts, not a wade across the flat. The wind is the tide. Work the leeward shore.

19 mph SSE · 22% rain · low slack

Where

• Land Cut · 7.3channel gut on a low slack tide is a workable match.
• Baffin Bay rocks · 7.2serpulid reef on a low slack tide is a workable match.
• TX - Mustang Island SP bayside launch · 7.2serpulid reef on a low slack tide is a workable match.

Permit should be the day — the creek mouths and the bights; tarpon live in the darker water.
