| HOPEDALE GRAND SLAM! 4/21/06 Russ Andreacchio, from Meridian, Mike Smith from Atlanta, and Robert Mercer from Birmingham teamed up to pull off an INSHORE GRAND SLAM on day with less than ideal conditions. Russ had been chomping at the bit for weeks waiting to get into some SPECKS and REDS. We shoved of at first light and were met in Lake Robin with rough water too windy for the outside so into the marsh we went. First few stops no luck then Mike hooks up and the drag is running and boats a nice drum. Then Robert CATFISH Mercer hooks up with a GAFTOP, from what Russ said he can catch a catfish in a bucket. Well a few casts later Russ puts the first trout on ice then Mike and Robert falling in line catching trout. We hit several more spots around the 4 Horse areas catching a few here and there before getting on a slow steady bite of nice trout in the Pipeline. We stayed there catching both reds and trout titelining Deadly Dudley’s in salt and pepper with green tails. Last stop the trout were on fire but it was short lived so we called it a day. WINDY, DIRTY WATER ,LOW TIDE but we hung in there and put together a nice box full of fish. The guys did a great job with turning subtle bites into fish in the box. We had a blast together and made it in just before the bad weather. 65 SPECKLED TROUT Fishing from a 25 ft TEAM AVENGER BAY BOAT powered by 225HP MERC CAPTAIN GENE DUGAS
