Dang nice troutA slow start turned out to be a decent day of fishing. Had a friend and his son with me today. Wound up with a good topwater catch - 13 trout, 2 rock, 1 puppy drum, 2 bluefish. My pal’s son caught both bluefish on a topwater plug at same time. My buddy topped it off with a helluva trout. You may not recognize him with his sunglasses on.

Makes me think about some hot oil !
My son and I fished this weekend and did ok. Didn't find many trout, but the ones we did catch were nice. Kept enough to eat.
Nice work! Funny you mentioned pin fish. Last week I caught two on a popping cork that were both pushing a pound. Biggest I've ever seen.Took a customer friend with me this morning. Wrapped up at noon w a dozen trout, 1 puppy drum, 1 flounder and 3 trophy class pinfish that ate mirrolure 17mr. We released all our fish, although most were nice fish in the 16-18” range. I got lucky and caught a pretty fat one....24-1/2”.

Damn boy, you need to fish more and work less. You've aged since we've seen each other. I don't reckon I classify as a business client anymoreTook a customer friend with me this morning.

Heck our trout are so spread out in my neck of the woods, we went back to sheapshead fishing.Kinda slow Trout bite yesterday evening. I haven't really gotten on them good yet. Still fun, but I'm ready for some numbers days. Can we get some cool weather already?
I'm certainly not a seasoned veteran. I do know a few guys that are really catching them(not well enough apparently), but most guys are having to work pretty hard for a limit.Heck our trout are so spread out in my neck of the woods, we went back to sheapshead fishing.
Yea, we were having to cover a lot of ground to really get on em. They were hardly ever where we left em the day before. It got to the point where the juice wasnt worth the squeeze so to speak considering you know where they'll be after a couple more cold fronts.I'm certainly not a seasoned veteran.

We had to get a blood transfusion after our hunt there Saturday morning.^ dont forget the skeeter spray if you are fishing hyde county..lord they were bad our last evening trip over there
