Bulls vs. Trout

This past Friday, I hopped into the water at the crack of day…about 5:30 am. I was fishing for trout, but on my first three casts, I caught three just like this one. While it’s fun catching 'em, I hate to spend that prime time of the morning fighting bull reds when I’m after trout. Ended up with a limit of slot sized reds and 15 trout. Released 10 bulls. All caught on a 3" Vudu Vixen, white with chartreuse tail. Oh, yeah…also caught 5-6 lady fish, aka redneck tarpon.

I really like that Concept reel. I’ve had an orange one for several years, but just recently bought this newest one. I bought it because it is impervious to salt water, and wade fish quite a bit. It’s virtually impossible to keep the reel out of the water when I’m wading. It’s smooth as silk. The only knock on this one and the orange one is they are noisy. Sounds like they need oiling or something. They have no ball bearings, but cast a country mile. I’m thinking about getting another.
