I had a fun trip today. I had three younger people from Gainsville today. I started the trip a little later because the only fish that have been caught on the higher water has been trout. I went out at sunrise to do a little fun fishing by myself and i caught 13 trout but no redfish. Well the water was dropping and it was time to start out my trip. I started off going to a spot to get them used to throwing the reels and catching the fish. Well after catching a bunch of smaller redfish and bluefish it was time to go get some big guys. Today was one of the busiest days with boats that I have seen all year. We headed north and into some small creeks and there were still boats everywhere. Well the fish did not seem to mind. We would let the boats go by and throw in there wakes and still catch upper slot redfish. Bj had the hot hand today. She was catching fish left and right. She had on a big fish that was throwing me for a look. I can usually tell what type of fish is on the line by the way that they fight. This fish was fighting strong and low without any big runs. Well it ended up being a 25"redfish that was missing most of its tail. It had got ate off at some point of his life. We ended up getting a bunch of really nice upper slot redfish and quite a few different species as well. Well now it was time to go catch some over size fish. We were able to get 2 big redfish today as well. What a fun day on the water and again I was able to put all of them on there biggest fish ever. I love being able to do that. What a memory of not being able to control the fish and watching this monster finally come up from the water . We were able to get some great pictures and get them back in the water quickly so that they can make more redfish for us in the future. Keep an eye out as the redfish will only be getting bigger as the summer gets going.
