Monster Speckle Trout

Offshore-911 · 05-14-2009, 11:06 AM

One of my best friends I fish with in St Joe called me up a couple days ago and told me he had caught a monster trout fishing in St Joe this past weekend. Me and him has been wade fishing for trout and redfish for the past 9 or 10 years and the biggest Ive caught has been around 7 pounds and I believe hes caught 1 or 2 around 7 but this one here tops it off...he said he was wading in about 16 inches of water when he looked back toward the hill and seen a bait pod moning up the bank and then a big swirl of a fish hitting them he said he threw and LY to him and he missed him the first time and thought is was a good redfish...he threw back and him and he said the fish inhaled it he said then he knew it was a trout..he said he was so big it was like reeling in a log that he was so big he hardly even gave up a fight. He got him back to Presnells that night and he hit the scales a little over 9 lbs. We gonna be fishing for 5 days there next week so hopefully have more reports to come.

I'm pretty sure he was right the first time. That's definitely a redfish, masquerading as a trout.... WOW.

I've heard the same thing about the fight from trout that big. I'm going to have to take yalls word for it though. Not able to give a personal testimony.
