SMOKING TROUT ACTION AT THE BEACH

Hello fellow anglers. Another great day on the water with a fun group of guys from all over the south in for a reunion of sorts on the water having fun and catching fish.Today I had the pleasure of fishing with Mr. Travis in from Mississippi and his law school buddies Mr.Jess in from Georgia and Mr. Nick in from south Carolina and boy could these guys really fish. the guys showed up at the dock early and were chomping at the bit to get to the smoking hot trout bite action that has been going on in Hopedale right now so with the live Campos shrimp it was off to the sound.

Today it was one stop shopping with as soon as the boat settled in the water the corks started going down and today the trout were HUGE!!!!!!!!!!! Travis had a slow start this morning and his buddies jumped out to an early lead but it didn't take him long to get into the swing of things and start slinging big sow trout over the rail and into the fish box. In the first 30 minutes the guys put 35 nice trout on ice before the fish feeding frenzy slowed a bit and then we trolled a short distance and the fish action was steady from start to Finnish and every now and again the guys would catch a black drum or a bay snapper but mostly fine specks. As the bite slowed we made an idle to a spot that has been holding the perfect grilling sized red fish and sure enough they were still there and the guys put 15 good reds on ice and a few more big trout in the box and then the bay snappers moved in and it was doubles and triples on almost every cast.

Today was what I like to call the perfect storm for fishing because we caught every thing that we targeted today and in short order because at 9:45 the guys were out of room in the 140 quart fish box and were catching and releasing until they were burnt out. After a round of high fives and a round of cold ones for the ride in we took it to the barn with 49 trout 15 red fish and 25 bay snappers and 3 huge smiles in the books. All fish today were caught on Campos live shrimp rigged 3 feet under a rattling popping cork.

We are now booking snapper trips for this season on our new catamaran with My brother Capt. Ricky at the helm and this year is going to be a great on off shore so get your dates on the books early for red snappers grouper lemon fish or tuna or any other fish species you would like to target.

If you would like to make a trip Capt. Ron give us a call or drop us an email we would love to take you and your friends and family fishing but call early because the available days are going fast.If you would like to take a trip please give me a call or drop me an email and we can arrange the trip of your lifetime. And as our motto says, "RAIN OR SHINE, SLEET OR SNOW, IF YOU COME WE WILL GO!
