It was another beautiful weekend in the Golden Isles.Temperatures in the mid 80's with lots of sunshine.The water was nice and clear in most areas.However,the winds did muddy up some locations.Tides ranged from 5.7-6.6 in Ht.We fished the incoming tide both days.The Trout bite was good as long as you found water with good movement.We boated 45-50 fish over the 2 days,and were able to keep 22.There were some really nice roe Trout in the mix,which we released.We caught all of our fish on Saltwater Assassins-Glass Minnow/Silver Mullet.Most of the fish we caught were on shell rakes and points.
