Went fishing today at the 41 bridges. I caught a few spotted trout, one that was just under a keeper. Also caught 1 Red, also just under a keeper. Then my father in law decided to break tradition, and catch something other than a catfish. Check it out in it's 26" glory.

That's a nice red

That is a good eating size red. Looks like a real nice dock/pier you are on too. The synthetic wood is allot easier to walk on.

It's really not much of a pier, but I agree about those boards. They are easier on the feet.

nice red found this pier sunday when i went out on the boat. nice looking pier but to much people there. might give it a shot at it if i dont go out on the boat.

I went out 4/25 just before lunch in Punta Gorda. Freelined a 3" new penny Gulp shrimp on a 1/0 hook, slowly dragging/bouncing the bottom. Second cast...

It was only in about 1-1.5' of water. The water was crystal clear, and he was about the going size. 22" of delicious...

You have those redfish dialed in.

Thank you sir. Unfortunately, that was my first LANDED of the season. here is hoping for many more to come...

Was in Port Charlotte today visiting my fiancé's family and hit the bay for a few hours. The water was a nasty brown. no hits and didn't see any baitfish or anything else. Is the bays on the west coast usually that color??? It sure looked like really dirty water.

There has been a lot of West wind so that would stir that bay water up

Nice red!

Looks like the first one was spotless too, which is a little more rare. Good stuff!
