we hit a cut in the river first that just looked fishy IMO and of course have had success there in the past. ( not being secretive, I just don't know the name of it) so first few cast and our guy in the back catches two solid trout. 19 and 21 inches back to back. my other buddy hooked a red fish that seemed to might have made slot but pulled off right at the boat, (someone forgot the net of course)
so high tide settles down a little bit and I'm assuming it was a community hole because there must have been about 12 boats in that area but we left there and headed towards the mouth.
right in front of the light house is a bunch of old wooden poles maybe an old dock or something? well to the left of that is a sand bar with about 3 poles in the middle of the bar. that sand bar runs a little bit out from the shore, maybe 100-200 yards. we power poled down on that point and casted into a spot about the size of a bus and caught our limit along with about 40 plus ( I'm being generous on the 40 ) 14-15/16 trout. it was awesome.
we left them biting but the only thing they would bite was a 5 inch glow jerk on a jig worked very slow. tried the tourist rig, top water, suspending baits,.. nothing even a sniff.
we never tried up the river or out on the flats, there where boats everywhere but we ran out of time.
not sure if we just got lucky or if it was the Southern Custom Rods
yall go get em.
