The trout are NOT in the rivers right now. You may get a few stragglers, but they are not concentrated like thay should be this time a year. The reason is simply because of all the rain we have had. There is WAY to much fresh water in the river systems. Redfish...now that's a different story. We caught 15 on a trip yesterday in the river.I have over20 spots in both Escambiaand blackwaterriver that I can usually go toon a regular basisand catch 30 to 40 trouta morning. It has not been likethat this year. There are a few trout concentratedin Weaverriver but that is about it. The water temp is plenty cold enough for the trout to be there right now.
