Was in need of some new line, had to test it out yesterday morning, some small trout and ladyfish. Water temps is in the 80’s, need it to cool off a bit so the bigger fish aren’t so lazy. Caught a nice 26” Red on a chunk of one the ladyfish.

Nice Red! I see you had to switch from your fly rod to catch it. I think that is why while I use a fly rod 90% of the time in fresh water, I only use a fly rod 10% in salt. Or maybe I just suck with a fly rod in salt.

I think all the bigger fish are just lazy in the hot water, throw a chunk of ladyfish out and they’ll find it, and I get lazy also ? I did catch one small red early in the morning.
