We had a Great trip to Matty this AM. We were wading with croakers & had limits fast. I went back to boat & got my rod I throw plastics with while the rest of the crew finished up their limits. I caught 8 more on DSL's with one that weighed a little over 7 lbs ,all were released. We left that spot to try & find some reds & I waded up into some grass beds about knee deep. My second cast I feel a good thump & set the hook. Thinking I have a red till about a few seconds later I see a Big grey shape. Turned out to be a trout that was a little over 29 in long. 2 cast later a 23 in trout. Caught one more trout & called it. I didn't want to kill a fish we couldn't keep. A great morning with family. Wife also got her personal best with a 26 in trout.

Glen not sure if that was you tied up next to Bink at the harbor this am. Thought it maybe was later in the day. I was a little out of sorts getting the wife and boys lined out before sunrise [emoji2957]If so sorry for not introducing myself. Tough morning for us. Caught a lot of fish including 8 or 9 snook which was cool, but just not many keeper trout. We are gonna try east bay tomorrow if there is a little breeze. If you see a blue and gray majek extreme 25 out there come say hi. Good luck.

Yes sir, I think so. Hard to keep all the days straight but I believe Bink and I had our boats together yesterday morning.
I was hesitant to fish the surf today after how slow the bite was for us yesterday. Then our group was very late to the dock. They shut down the bar the night before and didn't get to bed until after 4 am. We were supposed to meet at 6:15 this morning. I don't think I got out of the harbor until right around 9am and my guys were barely functioning.
So with all of that, we went and drifted the bay. My boat got our 15 trout and had a couple drum and a couple sand trout. Pretty solid for a couple hours of drift fishing with such a late start.
Fargus and I hit the surf this morning. Started off slow, but we switched to shrimp early and caught probably 50. Had 8 keepers(9 if the largest one I hooked hadn't tangled me around my rod tip and snapped my line[emoji41]). Bunch of 14 3/4"-ers, plus a couple 20 inch black tips. Had a 4 foot +/- shark do a drive-by on us as well. Water was pretty and baitfish and shrimp were everywhere. All in all a great morning.

Clearly I missed the morning toast the other day [emoji23]
And I guess I'm just old. I havent quit using them green curado. Hell I drug one 9 hours to catch rainbows and browns on it

Congrats on your trip today! Never figured it out in all my years of guiding waterfowl hunts while you spend big money to book a hunting or fishing trip & go out & get plastered the night before.
