Sat a.m. numb fingers and Trout Eyes

Mid ebb, steady north 15+ across a flat with 2’ clear stained water. The slowest jerk-and-fall retrieve I could make with a paddletail on the Trout Eye got 2 fish in 20 mins. Bigger fish marked on rod at 34-35", fair fight around oysters- amazing how strong they are in 54 degree (or less) water.

Awesome! :smiley:

Nice catching my friend

Those fish look cold.

Nice catch

What’s the genus ans species of those fish?

I have no idea, but they’re easier to pick up than a Cam Newton fumble

About time you made a report, and a good one at that! Wish the Cooper had 54 degree water still :smiley:

Great color on the fish, glad to see a healthy herd!
Of course I wouldn’t know, I’ve been glued to the couch for a week.
C’Mon spring!
