Sykes-Barge Canal w/Bill

The water was up at least a foot since last week and we were greeted by a 10' lizard floating in the middle of the canal.  The bait run was definitely moving through the canal, but there weren't a lot of predators.  Small trout were the only fish willing to take a topwater.  The culverts didn't hold any fish, so I moved east to a little creek mouth.  There I found a few larger trout, tiny Snook and small Tarpon, but wasn't having much luck hooking up.  I finally managed to catch dinner, a nice Flounder.  Weather was cooler and the rain held off, but not the stellar catching day I anticipated.
