This past Friday I took the advice of WaltDawg, cyGraphics, and Lunkerbrother and headed to the Lighthouse at St. Marks.  I got there around 6am at low tide and started fishing the flats.  I worked my way to the point, but still no luck.  I followed the path down to the trail on the other side of the boat ramp and went to its point.  After about 5 or so casts I hooked up on a 18 inch trout.

I then proceeded to cast back into the same area that I had the hook up with the first one in, hoping that there would be a school of trout in that area.  Luckily my intuition was correct and I hooked up with another nice 19 inch trout. 

I was using the Strike King Redfish Magic in the electric chicken color to catch both these trout. 

All in all, despite the huge storm that rolled in that forced me to take cover for about 20 minutes, it was a great day of fishing.  Thanks again to WaltDawg, cyGraphics, and Lunkerbrother for the advice on where to go.

Nice fish Snookpro! Thanks for sharing the report and the pics!

Were you throwing the Magic Spinner bait or just the soft plastics? I love throwing the spinner for reds. It seems if a trout happens to hit it they are always good size like those you caught.

I was throwing the spinner bait. I was hoping to catch a red on it, but the trouts seemed to explode on it, so it was a nice alternative. It was my first time using the redfish magic, and I enjoyed it.
