Started out after breakfast making one long supple bum drift almost 45 minutes. Picked up just some dink trout. Went to an area that I haven't fished in probably a month or so and water looked good. Clear enough for lures but not gin clear to where it Spooks the fish. Did about a 20 minute drift through there and picked up a 20 and an 18-in trout. also a 19 and 1/2 in red, two oversized reds and this 26-in. Everything released.

Wow! That fish looks like one of those replica mounts. God did a good job painting that one...

Beautiful fish. What brand and test line do you recommend for catching the big reds? I normally use Stren 15 lb but lately it seems to twist up. We plan on making our first Kayak trip in the salt soon. Thanks Zia.
