Wadmalaw Trout

My son and I worked our way south this morning to the Metal Trades area for the incoming tide. Tide was already pushing hard when we got to the spot and the trout were waiting. Got a good hour of action catching 15 or so with 4 keepers from 16-18". Bait was Z-man Paddlers and silver perch/shrimp under a float. Wind wasn’t too bad and never saw any rain despite the threatening clouds. Also caught a couple reds in the river with many missed on Z-man baits due to a lackidasical bite.

Nice fish and report.

Ian, Congrats on a nice day! My wife and I were out there in the same general area. Also caught trout and some reds, but they were all too small! They were hitting shrimp like crazy couldn’t keep the shrimp on the hook!

Good job on the trout.
