10/30/05 6 Hr. Morning Trip with 4 clients aboard (Alan Pipkin Group) Alan, his buddy and their two sons braved the cold today for some trout. We worked hole after hole and the bite was ok but the fish were small today. We wound up landing about 25 to 30 trout with a bunch of small keepers.

3Hr Afternoon Trip with Tony Fincher (of King Fish Team "Open Wide"). We went a chasin some white water reds... and man did we get into the Reds today. These fish were striking anything thrown, including topwater baits! We worked school after school with the trolling motor and managed over 40 reds from 23 to 27in. along with 2 flounder 14.5 and 16in. and a 2.5lb speckled trout. Tony, I hope that your 27in. 7lb 7.2oz red drum gets you in first place in your Top Dog Tourny! Great Job Man.

Sorry for the long lapse in reports but we have been very busy with the tournaments. The fall King bite has been strong with many fish coming off the beach. The fish are getting spunky with the temp drops. Fish skying on baits and making long runs are the norm. Here are some pics to wet your appetite.
