It is the fall season. Hey, everybody, Joe Simon's like diamonds back again with salt strong podcast. We're hearing a lot of questions in our insider community about how to target those monster gator trout in the fall and even into the early winter and instead of trying to recreate a podcast that we already did with one of the best experts on big gator trout.

My boy Chris Bush, who is the founder of speckle truth and has probably studied these big gator trout more than most people and especially when you can buy his dad who's caught.

I don't even remember the number of it's thousands of of speckle trout that he's like documented next level in terms of loving and targeting really big big trout.

So this is a repeat from a couple years ago, one of the best episodes that I believe we did on big speckle trout. So enjoy and share this with someone that you know loves to catch trout. Here's the episode.

Welcome to the salt strong podcast, disrupting fishing entertainment as you know it, prepare to laugh, prepare to get to know fishing legends in a whole new and unfiltered way.

And on occasion, you might even learn a thing or two about fishing. Here's your host Joe Simon's like diamonds.

Hello, salt strong nation, Joe Simon's like diamonds. We are back. We're an episode 150 something. Now if you can believe it and back by popular demand, Chris Bush, aka the speckle truth, dude, good to have you back on the show.

Hey, thanks Joe. I really appreciate it, buddy. I really do. I don't know about the popular demand stuff, though, the man we're just trying to continue grinding and just don't we're doing, you know, so thank you.

Yeah, it was the first time we had you on, we talked all about gator trout and it was definitely one of the most downloaded episodes we have had.

And I know since then you've started your own podcast, which I listened the first couple episodes and awesome and it's with the speckle truth on iTunes.

Yeah, the speckle truth podcast on iTunes that your Spotify pod being I think is the other one, but yeah, it's been a really fun endeavor. You've inspired me to kind of pursue that a little bit, man. And I think it's been pretty unique.

Yeah, with regard to getting the ability to really talk to some pretty established folks in terms of the trout, big trout area and in not only Texas, but really across the various stories it from North Carolina to Texas.

Now as we've just started, we're in Texas now. We're obviously slowly starting to migrate to Florida and up the east coast with our guests, but it's been fun.

Yeah, it's been a really proud of you, man. It's so it's so cool. And if you guys you have have not listened to his podcast or did not hear the first episode we did with Chris, he is the founder of speckle truth.

I would like to think has probably more intel and more like science based in data and like trends on big trout from Texas, basically up to Virginia than anyone I personally know and some of the things that you shared last time were just like, wow.

And so with this particular episode, we want to do we're going to call it T O D trout on demand in the fall. And you I said you a text. I guess was yesterday. Yeah, I was yesterday.

And I was like, man, how was the bite this weekend? And you send me some pictures back before you apply. And I was like, okay, I have seen all I need to see this gracious.

It's it's a it's fall. It's winter. Right. And so I'm sitting in my truck record this podcast with you wishing I was fishing because it's the absolute perfect conditions that I love the fish in.

And so the I think the average angler probably be considered miserable, but I see just amazing. It's misty. It's let's see 57 degrees.

Winds blown a little bit, but it's super grace guy misty, like I said, and pretty chilly. And those are my absolute favorite conditions. And I am definitely excited to obviously film.

But I definitely I will say I do wish I was fishing as well too. But yeah, it's been good. It's it's fall winter. It's getting cranked up and excited, you know, in the pattern starting to develop a little bit.

Starting to kind of figure those fish out kind of what's going on and having a few of those fronts move through and that's big. That's big not only for the big fish, but certainly here in this area.
