keaton beach report

Went down to keaton on thursday night with about 8 families. Our boat fished friday and saturday morning. Everyone did pretty well on the trout, bluefish, and spanish. We boated 6 keeper trout, 2 blues, and 1 spanish on friday. On saturday morning, we boated 8 keeper trout and 1 blue in about 2.5 hours.
The highlight of the trip was hooking, fighting, and landing a needle fish that was all of 40-inches long.
He jumped many times doing summersalts and going crazy. Never seen one even half that size before. Quite the fight for a 12 year old boy armed with 8 lb test.
We caught fish from about 3 feet out to over 8 feet with most of the fish holding in the 3 to 5 foot range.
The water is still wine colored but clear enough to see the bottom even in deep water.
