The website lists June as a slot fish only tourney, but here it is listed as a legal limit contest. Is that because your post starts by listing date as May 3rd instead of June 7? Just checking!

Hey Jimmy, thanks for posting the points. However, I don't see Nina or myself on there. I know you are scared of Nina, but any chance you can put her on so we can see where she stands?

Thanks

SO, Bryce Hill took 1st trout at 7.1lbs. The fish was only 27"s long.
2nd Place Went to Capt. Mike with a 6.10lb trout that was 29"s.
3rd Place went to Matt "Chewy" Sims with a 6.3lb trout. There was another 6.3lb fish but Matt weighed first.

I know Bryce Hill won big trout 7.1lbs and they also won big spanish. Not sure the weight of the spanish.

We fished the afternoon tide yesterday out of Oyster Bay. Caught 3 trout total. Two 19"rs and one 21" fish. Big fish was on topwater and the two smaller fish on a Gold Bomber. Very very slow. Might be another fresh water Summer.

If you can find structure in 15 to 20' of water they will be there also, but only for a short time as the temps are gonna start rising quickly.

Great report guys!

You can always check with Pete at Sunshine Boats in Tallahassee. He is a certified Yamaha master mechanic, not sure what he knows about Suzuki motors, but I am willing to bet he does. 850-576-5134
Worth a shot! Good luck.

Nina and I fished Wakulla Beach for a brief period mid afternoon. We caught 4 upper slot trout and then the wind started blowing. Doesn't take much in a Jon boat to be affected by weather conditions so we went in after about an hour and a half of fishing. Don't have a temp gauge on the jon boat, but ...
