We ended up with 3 keeper trout. One 19 inch. One decent flounder. Pushed out to 10 feet deep where the water was around 69-70 degrees. Drifted in to around 8 and the bite would slow up. Lots of short bass and trout. A remora puts up a nice little run.

Only caught one trout this weekend although that wasn't our targeted species. Did manage 12-15 reds on Saturday and a dozen or so on Sun. Fished from 9-2:30 both days out of SM. We normally pick up a few trout so it was odd not to see more.

We caught plenty of trout on Saturday. I would say one out of every five were in the slot. Didn't find them until around high tide. My buddy would kill me if I told, but we weren't in the river.

I fished Wednesday and Thursday and didn't have much luck. Only 5 keeper in 2 days. The conditions were horrible. We did catch more than our share of fat cats though. We caught a number of shorts as well.
