Had to go by myself today but,that was OK. Put in at the fort,went down river then west. Glad I did. Wish I had someone with me to keep more fish. Caught 6 reds all 20-26". Caught 13 trout,all 17-26". Mostly on topwater,some on jerkbaits.
All the fish were fat and aggressive.
Going again Saturday.
Going east then. I think.

Like a Redfin?
Hate you had to go by yourself, maybe you better start staying at home till someone can go with ya. Old men shouldn't be out on the ocean alone.
Also we got get you up to speed where you can start posting some pics so weekend warriors like myself can see some fish a little more often.

A friend of mine caught a 26 yesterday as well. There are no many trout in the 26-29 range in our area and I know of no (documented) trout caught around here making it to 30. My biggest is a 27 and I would have sworn it was 30 before I measured it (released).
