My guests were treated to excellent fishing in Breton Sound today. The seas were small with light winds and a few scattered thunder boomers. The tide was rising at just less than 2 feet and with the easterly winds, the water really moved today. The full moon last night staggered the feed, but it was a short wait between feeding sessions.
Our visit to a rig in the outer sound was the only stop we needed. Live shrimp carolina rigged was the hot lure for the early session with trout up to 2 Lbs. Artificials ruled the mid morning bite with trout up to 3.5 Lbs. The hot color was smoke with a red tail.
We only got two visits from sharks which cost us tackle, but not fish. We did have a 35-40 Lb redfish surface and try to eat a 2 Lb trout right at the boat! The water outside was cloudy, but plenty fishable.
Good luck out there this week!
