Trip Summary

Got an opportunity to fish with a good friend didnt get a chace to take many photos as this was strictly a fun trip with a lifelong buddy that it had been entirely to longsince we fished together. The trout were were thick in pot holes in the 3-5 ft range with multiple over slot fish hitting the deck. Once we found out limit of slot aizwd trout we moved on to redfish once the tide got high enough. The reds were not as hungry as the trout but did finally decide that they couldnt resist a large shrimp when presented just right.
