Got a call from my friend Kevin Badgett yesterday about 5:30pm....he was on his way into Perry for dinner at "Dill's".......he slap wore them out yesterday......said him and his 2 sons had their limits of trout before 10:30am ...he said most were between 17" and 21".....he said the incoming was outstanding and then things slowed at high tide, but as soon as the tide changed the bite was on again.....he said all were caught with cajun thunders with bass assasin eels......they used leaders from 12" to 48" long.....he stated that after the tide changed he was in an area that had almost 5 acres of glass minnows!!!!!!!!!....
he also said they were catching some of the biggest sand trout that he had ever seen!!!!! some of them to 16" and 17" long!!!!
he said the radio chatter was saying that few fish were being caught....he swears that they must have caught over 130 trout with very few being "dinks".....he said that he caught 26 trout on 26 casts...and that they were doubling up often......
he has 2 or 3 more days there before coming back to Griffin Ga.......He's staying at the motel at Keaton.....he will be in his 23' Ranger...the name of the boat is "Smells like Fish"......
