Thread: Salt Water Specks

After 18 months, I went fishing again. I went Friday night near the mouth of the Elizabeth River--salt water. I caught several speckled trout and quit counting after 10. Also caught 3 stripers about 19". Fished for 3 hours, at the last of the incoming tide. Water temp was 65*. I searched from 25FOW to 4FOW and most fish were shallow, less than 8' deep. Only caught one keeper, and that was a trout about 17" long. He went back in the drink, because he was all alone and still kicking. I threw SW Assassin in Chicken on a chain color, and blue/silver glitter 4" Fin-S.Since I am on a roll, I will probably go chase the correct specks this week/end sometime.Thanks to Flatwater for the push.
