Speckled trout abundant at Steinhatchee

The season's best run of speckled trout into a gulf river apparently arrived last week and weekend at the Steinhatchee's mouth. Richard Blake, his 5-year-old son Richard Jr., and Elliott McDavid made it onto the water around noon Saturday from Sea Hag Marina.

By 1:30, they had a 15-fish, three-person limit of trout. The three cast various lures and almost every one worked, but Mirrodines accounted for the lion's share.

They released lots more fish, and the day's highlight occurred when young Richard Jr. hauled in three trout on one cast. Seems like a pretty amazing feat to me. Some other Steinhatchee trout fishers reported catching and releasing as many as a hundred river trout.
