We are just heading home from a week at Oak Island NC, we've been going there since I was a kid. We go out and





catch our on shrimp everyday at low tide and use them to trout fish, we had a great week caught we'll over 150 trout and had 61 keepers. So we'll be eating good for awhile

Looks like a great time with the family.

Yea beav, it was definitely a great time. Just wish I could stay for two weeks instead of one. But it's always nice to get back to the mountains and cooler temps

looks like a great time

Looks like a great time.

Looks fun where there a lot of people out there fishing?

Quite a few Matt since it was the week of the 4th but it wasn't bad. Most people are just fishing for whatever with cut bait and dead shrimp. There was usually just 10-15 serious trout fisherman out there

Well It looks like y'all had a nice time. I have never had trout from the ocean. I use to go to Colorado and catch trout there they were real good.

Looks like a good time!

Matt we have some of the best freshwater trout fishing here in east Tennessee but the speckle trout from the ocean are so much better eating. One of my favorite right with walleye

What a great time looks like !

Thanks for sharing.

Any you guys ever speckle trout fish in saltwater?

RM those fish good eatin? Wonder if you can catch them in the Gulf?

Holy smokes , that looks like a wonderful time.
Were you able to catch all those guys from the pier?
The only salt water I know anything about is to boil potatoes.

I used to fish for those and bluefish in the Delaware bay. I love flyfishing for freshwater trout but don't care to eat many. The sea trout(they called them specs and weakies in de) are a lot better eating.

yes rm,had a job at 20 yrs old in texas fishing for those in the intracoastal canal(waterway) we used shrimp also we seined for bait and nightly caught 300-400 pounds on poles off 9 docks. We caught trout,flounder and redfish nightfishing off docks with lights shining on water. An occasional shark would swim thru the light

I agree, saltwater specs are better than freshwater trout. We catch them in Florida on mirrolure plugs. From where I live in NC, we can be to Panama City about as fast as Hatteras. Love both places.

Wow, that's awesome. Sea trout are delicious. Nice pile you got there. That'll last ya a while... or maybe not.

of course!......glad you had a good time down here.
