Went down yesterday afternoon to Econfina River yesterday for some stupid reason (buddies talked me into it) and headed over towards the Aucilla River lookin for some trout and redfish. I knew ahead of time that we would have a negative tide with a steady north which meant the water was very slow coming back into the river. Low tide was suppose to be around 9:00 am so I took my time gettin to the landing. When we got there at 12:30 there was not enough water to put the boat in the river!!40min later the water rose about a 2ft and we were able to put the boat in the water but had to idle out due to the shallow water and rocks.
Finally started fishin about 1:30 and we had a limit of 15 trout by 3:00!!
Must have caught 50+ fish on Cajun Thunder, 1/4oz jigs, and 3" Shrimp Gulp.
Moved over to some of my redfish spots and only caught more trout. Great day but the high temp was 53-55 with a steady 15-20mph wind which ment it was as "COLD AS ICE" and my fingers were froze so unable to take pictures!! Forgive me please!
I could go home and take a picture of the cooler full of fish in need to clean!
