Took my son and my daughters "special friend". He had not been fishing in 4 years. :0

Hit the water around 9 and headed to the mouth of East river. Water was 67 Degrees. Fished up into the river and caught a few nice rock bass. Found a school of trout and caught 15-20, but they were all dinks except for one 15.5 we kept. Left there and ran west to a creek mouth. First cast, 15.5" trout. Then we caught about 30 more dinks. Wind was ripping so we headed in at 1pm. Got almost a 1/2 gallon of filets out of these. 2 largest rock bass were 13".

Nice! I've caught quite a few rock bass out of St marks this year, but they were all short. Which is a shame, because they are one of my most favorite fish to eat. Great report!

Hey bbb,

Were you throwing artificials or live bait?

Went out on 10/28 with a grub and 1/4 oz jig with very little success.

Thanks

Gulp and Zman baits in white.
