    Default SCORE! on the blessed coast


    This day will be remembered from the salt. Fishing the incoming tide, I managed to see a big improvement on keeper to throwback ratio. While using light, artificials only, I was fortunate to catch 12 nice speckled trout up to 20.25". Some beautiful wide-shouldered 19" fish were released after attaining the one angler limit. Some feisty undersized reds, ladyfish and pinfish made the efforts a little more diverse today but the influx of floating vegetation created a continual nuisance. Fish bite was on like donkey-kong with a fish activity index @97 on my fish app. Going to Applewood-smoke these candidates after the butterfly process.

    That is a acrobatic, feisty Ladyfish...awesome as a cut bait for Reds, trout, cobia, just about any saltwater fish.
