Me and 3 buddies have a boat rented this weekend in steinhatchee. I just drove from New England and brought my striper rods. I have ocean fishing experience but fishing Coldwater in Maine vs fishing the gulf can't be the same. Any tips for targeting som e sea trout and whatever else is going on? I've been told to bring shrimp, real and fake. Anything anyone feels like throwing at me for random advice id appreciate. Thanks.
