Small Trout, Big Red

10.17.15

Water temp 78 degrees

Wanting to get out before the blow this weekend, I slid the tin boat off the trailer and headed over to the convenient holes behind the house.

Keeper 14" trout were biting well on the curly jig in white until a large boat washed the hole out with huge waves spoiling a nice trout bite.

I proceeded over to one of our bait holes and loaded up on mullet and shrimp.

I tried to expand my zone for fishing, but after two or three stops and nothing happening I proceeded back to the bank where I always get action.

This time I threaded a big live mullet on a kahle hook and was quickly rewarded with this big, multi- spotted overslot red that couldn't resist the free meal.

I watched some pup reds rooting in the mud for shrimp and decided to call it a day as the tide bottomed out.

Gotta love fall fishing!
