She caught hers on lice shrimp and mine was on a glow and chart-ruse sand eel. The bite was real slow until we moved to the washout. First cast had one break my line at the boat. To add insult to injury it slowly swam off with my cork still visible. Sat in that one spot catching some decent eating size trout. We ended up keeping 15 trout. I hadn't kept trout in years because of the worms in them. After cleaning the fish didn't find the first worm. Looking forward to frying them up tomorrow hopefully after church. Attachment 20737

That's awesome man glad y'all caught some fish! I gotta teach my ole lady how to work artificial lures and get away from them skrimps, by the way what is Lice Shrimp lol?
I have been coming across a few fish with those wax worms I cut them out the fillet but I don't think that they hurt anything! Any way thanks for the report man
