That had to be a typo. Anybody who has the common decency to buy that kind of driver wouldn't put a spec filet in the oven at that heat for that long.

This really just reminds me I need to get me some fresh specs.

I'm not trying to bring the OB to the F&DB, but Shell Beach and Hopedale this past weekend were on fire.

Live shrimp on a Carolina rig, count to 10, set the hook.



I'm not kidding. I'm eating trout all week.

Jelly. Muddy water on the GA coast Saturday made it a trash fish fest. 2 damn trout, 1 black drum were the keepers.

No, not a typo. This was how I had to cook it when my wife was pregnant. It wasn't as overcooked as you would think. Maybe it was my oven or the lemon and butter kept it moist. Cook it for less if you choose.

My wife baked a pan of specs with panko crumbs and garlic - very simple but was delicious. Don't know the details of how, just felt like I needed to sample it multiple times.

The only real dredge of flour I use is when I am frying but I do run the filets through flour the knock almost all of it off before sautéing in butter and olive oil. Just enough flour to make the fish crisp and brown. It's very little.

I don't do too much with trout because I want to taste the fish. Bit of butter, salt and pepper, little lemon and white wine and in oven maybe 7-8 minutes.

A speckled trout taco is good though.

And I caught a box full each of the last three weeks. I'm turning to Toledo Bend for this next week. I'll be substituting bass for specs in these recipes. And hopefully sac a lait as well.
