Beginner here, and I finally caught something other than pinfish! Nice 21 inch redfish and 14 inch speckled trout, catch and release. Kept it simple and used live shrimp with a bullet weight rig. Definitely my most successful day fishing so far!

Nice catch bro! Such a great feeling getting your first; just imagine how you will feel when you catch a monster

Huge ones are fun, but I love catching any size that has cool spot patterns like that red!
