Fall Trout

                            The speckled trout fishing on the coast continues to be exceptional. 


The trout have moved into their Fall/Winter haunts.  The rock jetties, beach sloughs, and mainland creeks are stacking up with fish.


Fall trout fishing is always good if you know where to look, but this year, we have the best size class of fish I have seen in six or more years. 



Thanks to last years mild winter and stricter regulations, we are enjoying some great fishing...come and get some.

Pre Hurricane Albies

I got to do some fishing with good friends last week before Hurricane Sandy rolled through and made a big mess of the East Coast.  We have an annual get together every October, and friends come in from all over the Country to stay in Atlantic Beach and chase albies.  Some years, mother nature and the albies are good to us, and we reap the benefits.  Other years, the fishing and weather is less than perfect, but we still have a great time tying flies, eating good food, and talking smack.  This year we had a few days of very good fishing... and then a few days of 40mph winds, sideways rain, and 15ft swells as Sandy skirted the coast.  Lots of fish were caught, lots of lies were told, and several bushels of Oysters gave their lives during the Saturday night Hurricane Party.  Talk is cheap, so here are a few pics from last week.
