In April of last year, we did an article on catching tripletail off the beach at Jekyll Island.

Saltwater: Inshore: Capt. David Newlin reports, “The trout bite has been really good the last few weeks. The key to catching trout has been finding clear water. During June, a lot of trout will be caught on the beach fronts. The usual slip-float rig will work on the beach with a live shrimp or a…
