Podcast Ep. 4- Catching them on Purpose with my Angling Mentor - Captain Mike “McTrout” McBride 

It's great hearing from both of you.

That was great! My mentor is Tobin Strickland and he's been fantastic, the best.

I love fishing shallow at nights for big trout!!! I try and convince my friends to try chunking a big topwater at night. The thrill of hearing your topwater being smoked at night is one of a kind!!!

Awesome content Chris! Really really interesting

Yes , on Big Trout , One June month about 15 yrs ago we were fishing for big Gafftop ( Star Tournament ) w Big Fresh Menhaden castnetted ,,,, l threw out a 9” menhaden pinned by the mouth from underneath along the edge ( 2’ from the shore ) Of The River & l put it in the Rodholder in the Boat , Well - a Trout ( Torpedo ) bit it that made a 34” redfish look like a 20” redfish,,, at the boat this trout regurgitated the menhaden l had pinned on a single 4/0 eagleclaw gold hook ,,, So I say without doubt or inhibition , that Fish had to be at or Better than 40” ,,, I believe truly that there are 40” plus Spotted Seatrout in the waters ,,, ( But r not Everywhere At All ) ,,,, I wish I could’ve taken that fish alive to a Live Tank for Science,,,🤗

Sorry Guys , What I mean by Dredging a Rectangular 10 ft Deep Hole is to Dredge these Holes at Many Locations Where Cuts are Located Going Into the ICW or the Gulf of Mexico ,,, ( To Provide a Safe Place for Trout to Ride Out a Freeze All Across Where Speckled Trout Inhabit ) 😊

Chris Awesome job 👍 Looking forward to the Next one with Mike
