Go east to chase trout and redfish

Forgotten Coast Fishing Report Well, things are slowing down in our little town of Port St. Joe. Like the maddening crowds, the high temperatures are packing their bags and leaving as well. In about a week’s time, you had better have those sweatshirts and light jackets ready as our low temperatures will dip down in the 40s. Here at Bluewater Outriggers, things are not slowing down at all. In fact, employees Bruce and Shaydon are scrambling to put up all the new Daiwa gear that Jake and I purchased for the store. Their haste is not because of some deep-rooted work ethic engrained in them, but rather, to avoid reproach from old man Daniel Coleman, who’s been working at Bluewater almost longer than anybody. You show him a picture of your best trout, and he’ll show you 10 pictures of bigger ones that’ll show you just where you stand in the scheme of things. He’s a no-nonsense, tell it like it is, if you cross him, you better pack a lunch type of guy.
