My wife joined me for a half day fishing trip in PC this week. We caught a total of nine trout with all nine being keepers. A couple were just over 15" but the rest were 18-21 inches. We also caught a couple of nice 5 pound Spanish and a bunch of Skipjacks and Bluefish.
Most of the trout were caught on live Pilchards but I did manage a couple on Top Dogs. The Bluefish seemed to especially enjoy a red head Yozuri Crystal Minnow.
The most excitement of the day came when a big Jack Crevalle hit a Cast Master spoon I was throwing near the Pass. There was no turning it with 8 lb line and it made one long run and cut me off on the rocks at the end of the Jetty.
The next day Cindy stayed home and we went chasing Tarpon on the beach. We saw at least thirty fish but could never get one to eat. I am starting to get a better understanding of why some people refer to them as the "elusive" Silver King.
Here is Cindy with a nice little trout. Nobody would take my picture.
