#TBT my wife and I caught these Spanish along with some pompano, lady fish and a limit of trout in the surf on one of those rare days when the water flattens out and turns green. We fished with live shrimp under a Cajun Thunder popping cork with about 3 ft of fluorocarbon leader and a treble hook. When the Spanish start to move in I change to a wire leader usually.

      @cole_papa the wind is really the best forecast tool. If we have a light southeast wind for a few days you can pretty much bet we're going to have some calm ...more green water. I also check the live cams

      Question- I know you can check the winds before you go but how do you know the water is gonna be green before you make the trek into the gulf?
