as a kid I would vist family @ the outer banks,NC. one thing i remember seeing was guys setup w/ a small boat they would launch from the beach, and set out a reallllly long gillnet. later the pulled it in w/ trucks, and there were thousands of speckled trout in it, usually 18-24".......
the fish were sold commercially(not knocking com. fishing here !)
and i was just amazed at how many fish would fill the backs of pickups.......i don't know if they were the same exact fish, but i thought they were squet's.....this was a pretty common tradition,
and not unusual to see on a calm day in november.
that might have hurt a little bit over the decades.
