We had a great inshore trip! Look at the size of that trout! He was a catch and release ! 🎣 What an incredible day out on the water! 🌊
Landing a 26.5-inch trout is a massive achievement! 🏆 And releasing a trophy fish like that to fight another day—that’s what true sportsmanship is all about. 👏🎣
Battling 2–2.5 foot chop in the bay is no joke either! Those Tennessee guys definitely earned their stripes as true troopers. 💪🇺🇸 It takes some serious grit and determination to fish hard through conditions like that, but it clearly paid off with an incredible catch! 

The weather has been hot, but the trout bite has been hotter! Another great trip! ☀️

Another unforgettable day with Sea Dawg Charter! 🎣 We welcomed some great guys from Arkansas, and the fish were ready to cooperate.
