NOTES

Ethan Slam Tournament

Anclote Anchorage



The fishing on the flats of Anclote River was fantastic today! The calm waters and light winds made for perfect fishing conditions. We were able to catch a variety of species including Redfish, Snook, and Trout.

Our tackle setup consisted of a 13 Fishing #Axum 4.0 reel paired with a Green Omen heavy action rod. We used 20 lb. test braided line and 1/4 oz. jig heads with soft plastic baits.

The Redfish were biting early in the morning and we were able to catch several of them using the soft plastic baits. As the day went on, we started to target Snook and Trout. We found success using cut bait and live greenbacks.completing the slam!
Overall, it was a great day of fishing on the flats of Anclote River. The calm waters and light winds made for perfect conditions and we were able to catch a variety of species using our trusty tackle setup.
