Decent top bite early. Caught quite a few. All released except this guy. Lot of good reds. When the wind and rain kicked up the reds went off hard.

      @speckcatcher since x-mas. It's holding up good. I clean it after every trip. It's a killer real. We will see in a few months.

      Also, how long have you had the Ci4, and how is it holding up in the salt?

      It makes perfect sense, I completely agree with you. I just thought you only kept that one lol. If I don't keep at least 4-5 I'll let em swim

      @speckcatcher those are just the first couple reasons I can think of. Does any of that make sense? I see too many people take fish out of the system just to take ...more a picture of a "limit"

      @speckcatcherProbably because I have a cooler full of reds and trout, I'm driving back to Austin. I don't need to kill more than I can eat. Also I didn't ...more want to Stand in the rain cleaning fish

      Why keep just one trout?

      Yeah. I caught mine right as it started blowing. We were running back to fat boys and it died down. We usually fish that channel but they were shallow yesterday ...more down on the West end so I tried shallow

      I was bummed that front hit so early. Wasn't supposed to hit til later. It was about to bust open but that wind killed the trout bite.

      @bmftom they were in that cut. I walked a ways back then the wind let up so I headed back to the cut and caught a few more reds then I bailed

      My buddy threw the same color as you did the entire time and got nothing. I was working a pink corky.

      @bmftom I saw you guys. No trout? Early on at six I didn't get a blowup so I went back to plastic caught a couple good reds and a couple trout. Then the wind ...more died and the trout were slamming the spook

      Yeah. I saw you over there. We left behind you as you were walking back. There were a lot of fish in the cove we were in but only one keeper trout.

      @bmftom I was sticking trout in the cut. When the wind started kicking I went back into the cove and got some good reds. Keepers. Just headed back to Austin. Didn't ...more want to deal with more fish

      Were you in that same spot again? I waded the cove behind the tubes and couldn't keep the rat reds off my line.
