The trout bite is hot right now. For some reason this year there are alot more gator trout in the area than there has been in previous years. Fish caught by Mike and Brant Peacher

25 fish between 18 and 25in

Lost one at the boat that might have gone 28in

All the fish were caught at the old elephant graveyards near east bay.

Just so you know, we released at least 10 as big or bigger than the ones in this picture.  Also, instead of keeping 10 like we could have, we only kept five and ate everyone of them last night!

Cubs fan,

 I was just curious to where you learned your interesting writing style from? Your sentences are so well structured and everything you post is such a fantastic read! You should start posting some of your fishing reports on here. I would love to learn more about you....

brant, your reply above sounds like a dating service reply

i can't believe you kept less than your limit...how dare you.  and why in the hell do people feel the need to get into everyone elses business?  if you want to eat white trout then by all means eat them.....but don't bash someone for keeping a few specks and eating them.

No hatred! Brant and I have caught so many specks and reds over the  past  few weeks and have released everything except for five that we wanted to eat. I guess it was just surprising to us that someone would chastise us for that. (especially when it was perfectly legal). I guess maybe we took the post as being very negative towards us and apologize for our quick reactions.

Good job guys! No apologies necessary. I thinks Josh's comments about hatred were meant for someone else.

Still in Knoxville,TN but working on it.

Thanks for all the info. Lets go fishing! Can't wait to meet more of you folks.             Hal, you owe me a beer!

any good tips for pensacola bay

Iceman, Konz, and anyone else!

As far as Pensacola bay question goes I dont fish for trout in the winter in Pcola Bay. Pcola bay can be outstanding during the spring for big trout if you fish the grass beds early morning, late afternoon, or around deep water structure during the day with live bait of some sort. I would prefer pinfish over shrimp because all the small fish eat the shrimp first.

Your best bet for targeting trout is to learn the river systems. (escambia, Blackwater) Trout concentrate in the rivers during the fall and winter because the bait moves into the river. Take a depthfinder with you and learn the different dropoffs. I catch my largest trout in deep water during the winter. Believe me, any dropoffs you find will hold nice trout in these two river systems this time of year. If you dont know the hotspots in these river systems then just look for other boats. When you see 4 or 5 other boats fishing in the same area then you know thats where the trout are concentrated that day. Winter time trout are not a picky fish so you dont have to use gulps. Any soft plastic will do. The difference between winter trout fishing in the river vs. summer trout fishing in the bay is when you find the river fish then you have a good shot of catching 30 to 40 fish out of a school. Good luck to all you guys that PM me.

Love the 440 man! Its built just like any other top notch spinning reel in the world. Unlike some of its competitors it has 5 "stainless steel" ball bearings which makes it a reel thats not going to give its self up to salt water very easily. It holds plenty of line. You can put 250yds of 10lb test mono on it. Not to mention, if you prefer braid, which I do, you can almost make the 440ssg a big game reel. Braid has really changed the fishing industry. Not to mention that the 440 has a 5.1.1 gear ratio giving you about 29in per crank of line. Thats top notch for a small game reel.

As far as the AF reels go Im a huge fan. They are super fast, light wieght reels. They have 8 stainless steel ball bearings, a gear ratio of 5.1.1 which is the same as the ssg series. They are ideal for light tackle challanges.

I dont use any monofiliment. I think the braids are superior in strength but more so in sensitivity. If you know how to tie knots,to avoid useing swivels youll catch more fish. I like the Shimano Reels. I grew up with Penn Reels . I used to think they were the best you could buy ,But thats not true anymore. All of my inshore reels are Shimano and Okuma. I still have a few750ss but i dont fish outside too often, I like fishing inshore.
