It has been a great week of fishing and today was about the same. We have been hitting the Spanish early on the falling tide and nice weather. From the North jetty to the shipping channel, Castle Pickney, and behind drum island the mackerel fishing has been great. We have used a variety of different jigs. Deadly Dick and Gotchas and we have used small wonder hair clousers for the fly. Today I was chumming with live bait and got some nice Jacks up to the surface behind the boat. The trout bite has also been outstanding. We have mostly been fishing small pogies on a cork. Three fish over five pounds this week and one topping off at 5lbs. 10 oz. Also caught some nice reds today using the pogies on the  cork as well as on the bottom. They seemed to be a little more frisky today maybe with this cooler weather coming. With the light tides the water  has been clearer and the bait a little thicker. I don’t think it will be long before we start seeing the Sliver King or hearing something about it. I will fish for them some next week and post a report after if you are interested in whats going on with them.
