What a great day on the water and we caught some beautiful Crystal River trout. I had Amanda and Jimmy on board for the day, to take some pictures for some various magazines and calenders. Speckled trout was our species and even though the wind was up and a slight cold front came through the area, the bite was on. We fished a variety of areas and used several D.O.A. cal shad tails and jerk baits to catch our fish. The morning started out good with lots of action, but no real big fish. However, when the sun warmed the water a degree or two, the big trout turned on. We caught some gator trout over 20", with the largest being 25". It was a perfect photo shoot and the pictures will look fantastic. I'll keep you all posted on the when and where and here's Amanda and Jimmy with a couple beautiful Crystal River trout... Capt. Dan
