Finally got the kind of day where we could go out front in our boat and was at one of our spots at daylight. Right off the bat I caught a good red and 2 big specks on a white with a red head Super Spook Jr but that was it on the top water so I switched over to a TTR11 mirrolure because; well just because I have just been catching a bunch of fish on it every time I throw it. We had to fish hard for them because it wasn't a every cast type of bite but we ended up with 22 Big trout and lost way over what would have given us our 2 man limit of big trout. They were smoking the mirrolures on the strike. The tide was running so hard it was tough getting them to the boat even with 3 sets of trebles. Since they were big trout anyways (and very strong, was stripping drag like a red) and the tide was running hard many of them were just tearing the hooks out. We both lost fish in the 5 pound range and several fish in the 3+ range. We got one 5 pounder to the boat and my buddy caught it and everything else was 3 or better. My buddy caught a couple on plastics under a cork early but I was smoken them on the mirrolure so he had to put the cork down and tie on a mirrolure too. We hooked way over a 2 man limit of big trout but ended up with 22 and the 1 red and one flounder. For scale that is a decent sized chest and the trout go from end to end.
