gbcreed45 Loc: Florida, Gulf Coast
 
I blew the engine in my pickup truck and had a new motor installed. I can’t haul my boat until the new motor has been broken in (3,000 mi).
Meanwhile, I’m learning to fish from Frank Howard bridge in Tarpon Springs, FL.
I went fishing Tuesday for 1 1/2 hrs and caught these three beautiful trout. I had to release one that was over the limit, and a few got away. But all in all a wonderful day.
With the low cost of fishing from a bridge and the short amount of time required to produce this catch, I may never put the boat back in the water.

Nice gp45, that would certainly make my day. Were you able to net them from a low bridge or was it hope they make it scenario?

What happens when the fish move to the weeds and you need a boat?

I'll bet he meant Fred Howard as he said Tarpon Springs. Going out to the island (park) is a mile long bridge with grass flats on either side with bridges thru the causeway.

Either way, nice trout from any location. Welcome back Fin. Haven’t seen you post in a while. Probably just me. Still smoking your catch of the day?
