Hit the rocks between Holly Beach and J.B. Water is still murky, but calm with some
1 ft. swells from the South rolling in. Caught and kept 3 small dink Specks, lost one
pretty nice one and released a buttload of pickle sized trout early this morning. They
were in the washed out area along the waterline. Caught the pickles on Spook Jr's.
and the keepers on Opening Night Deadly Dudley's. Moved to the East end of the rocks
closer to Holly Beach and saw a lot of finger mullet along the edge of the water, but
nothing at the rocks. Water lot more muddy to the East. Didn't stay long. Brought
the dinks home, filleted them and my wife and I ate them for lunch.
Dusted the fillets with Old Bay seasoning and black pepper. Dusted with cracker
meal and pan fried them in olive oil butter. Talk about good. If I would have caught
15 trout, I think we would have eaten 30 fillets.
