I had planned on tautog fishing today but the forecast made me chicken out. Turned out a lot nicer than I thought…anyway… Stan Simmerman invited me to give the speckled trout a try. Apparently, we stole Keith Nutall’s boat. It started out slow. I told Stan to call Keith and tell him that his boat was broken…it doesn’t catch fish. Stan just laughed and showed me photos of Keith’s recent gators. Then Stan proceeded to catch speckled trout. I got to net them. We hung out until I finally caught one. I thanked Stan and told him that one fish would keep me from being made too much fun of. He said that he should have just taken me in after I told his one boot, one shoe story last week. We will give the tautog a try tomorrow.
I did ask Stan if I should be a real speckled trout angler and blur out all of the photo backgrounds. He said he wasn’t worried about that so you can see the super-secret area I wasn’t catching trout in.
