October Spot Fishing

Temperatures in the mid 70s and SW winds at 5 - who wants to cut grass? My wife and I jumped in the truck on Saturday and trailered down to Rudee Inlet to see if we could catch the Spot that have been eluding me this week. Normally I like to fish for bigger species, but deep-fried Spot are so delicious!

We anchored in the mouth of the inlet closer to the channel than the other boats and spent the next two hours tossing decent-sized Spot in the fish box. We ended up with 41 Spot - a good start for our upcoming fish fry - and left them biting. Nearby, we watched two other anglers catch and land eight good-sized Sheepshead. I watched them carefully and talked to them later in the day at the dock. I'll have to give it a try later in the week.
