Not sure why the surf goes up and down every year, but it always seems like every 3rd year is amazing and this year is that one. Went Friday down PINS where I always go trying hard and Saturday just playing with the kids and caught all kinds of fish both days. My friend's 6 year old son saw his dad catch a trout with a plastic standing on the 1st bar working the deep gut, so he asked his dad to rig him up. At 6 years old, with a spinning combo bought in the hill country with 6lb test the kid caught a 20" trout, 1st one ever. and while getting slammed in the chest standing on the bar and walked it all the way to the bank. I forgot about all my fish and thought that was the coolest thing ever. Hopefully he'll get in the Saltwater Angler (Tyler Wink

), he deserves it

Great story and pics! I fixed the links. I will see what I can do on the photos. What is the six year old's name and where is he from?

looks like the fishing was great even with the rough waves. What were you mainly using? It looks like a soft plastic motor oil color rigged like I would do it here in the hill country for a lmb. Thanks and congrats.

Man, what a great story and report!!!! Very Happy

Also, what a lucky kid.................................. when I was his age we hardly ever went to the beach because every time we did, dad would make us wash, wax and vacuum the freaking car!!!!!! Embarassed
