BLAST AND CAST! Specks and Teal






TROUT!
The trout have started to bite again in Hopedale this past week. I had mike and Gary out on Wednesday and got on a good trout bite with live shrimp under a cork . Mike and Gary are regulars and know how to put fish in the boat so it did not take long and the limit was full. 75 beautiful trout and few redfish for the grill.
I also did some hunting for those blue winged rockets with my son’s Jacob and Daniel. We shot some and missed some but a great time together. Next Morning Jacob nad I went looking for those speckled trout and got right on them nice sized fish too live shrimp under cork. Just quick trip for some fun and get some fillets for Jacob to bring back to college with him. No limit but 30 good trout and nice flounder.
LOOKS LIKE THE TROUT ARE STARTING TO MOVE IN FOR THE FALL

Dias family fishing trip


Chuck Dias and family out with us yesterday for a family fishing trip. It was little windy for the trout but everyone said they would rather catch redfish so redfish it was. Two boats today with Capt Tony helping me out with the group. Things started off right with black drum and redfish. A steady bite all morning filling the box with reds, drum and a few trout. Birthday girl Joyce Chuck’s wife had the hot hand today catching the most and the biggest fish for the day and to top it off it was her birthday too. Happy Birthday Joyce! Great trip with a nice family and plenty of redfish and drum on the half shell for the grill. In fact we fired up the grill at the dock and put some redfish on for lunch fresh right out of the water to the grill!

BACHELOR PARTY REDFISH!


Chris Cullen and the gang were down in Hopedale again to fish and celebrate Kevin’s bachelor party fishing trip. They came down the night before and stayed at the camp and were ready to go early. I had two boats today with Capt tony helping out with half the group. We started out a little late because I was late getting there no matter the fish were waiting for us. Started out fist stop first cast Kevin nails a nice red good way to start. Both boats moved around picking away at trout but nothing going strong. Shifted gears and turned to redfish working the shoreline and points. I got on a good school of big reds and the other boat was close by so we called them over to join in on the fun. Drags screaming and rods bent it was wild for a solid hour. A lot of the reds were over 27 “ so we turned them back after enjoying the fight. It was perfect we had the whole group on the fish just 75 yards between the boats with all the hollering and laughing going on it was blast. The guy’s caught reds till their arms hurt. Headed for the dock to take some pictures and clean up the catch. What a memory trip for a bachelor party, a day to remember for sure. AWESOME DAY!
