Went to Hopedale yesterday to go try the fish with my friend Bruce. The conditions were perfect wind Screaming out the NW and low tide. I don't know why I take Bruce the wind howls every time he gets in my boat but we always catch fish and this time was no different. The trout were not happening low dirty cold water so we turned to redfish. Fishing plastics, Gulps and ,live cocahoe under corks at the drains we put our limit of reds in the boat and released a bunch more. Had the in laws over for a redfish dinner Saturday night. PERFECT DAY!

Limit 10 reds and 2 trout
