Lighthouse topwater trout 5/28

Post by Reel Slow »

Been fishing st marks, lanark and st joe the last 2 weeks. Reds have been good, but trout have been just so so, hit or miss. Today that seemed to change.

Got "permission" to go to the lighthouse. At the gate at 6am. Found a few reds in a favorite spot on what was left of the fall. Moved out to 18" - 3' and caught 12 or so nice trout on Topwater, all nice fish. Had many more blow ups including a gator trout that sent the saltwater sallee sailing out of the water :smt010 .

First time this year that topwater was on for me even through the low. Riding back saw several boats pulling trout in. Is St Marks finally on?. Out at 11:30, almost on time :-D .

Glad you had a good day...how did St. Joe go? I think Bud and I were a few hundred yards from you on Saturday?

A half-dozen reds each day, and a couple nice trout. Big schools of reds seemed slower than normal for this time of year :roll:.


Good luck Tuesday PA! I bet you have a good un :thumbup:
