Louis lives, guides, fishes and duck hunts out of the Palacios area. Lately they have been hitting the surf bringing in nice trout. Sat. on such a trip, mostly wading, he hooks this beauty on his trout rig. Took 40 min. to bring it in and I know for a fact he uses mono. He sent this to me via his phone. Said it measured 4 1/2 ft.

Great job landing that one on a trout rig. Are you sure that picture was taken in the surf?

Yeah..................... looks like land in the background, WAY off.................... that and the lack of any wave action whatsoever sure looks like inland waters.   Looks like a beautiful algae bloom too!!!! Great for the food chain!

Jelly, good catch, I'll ask. I assumed cause that's where he's been lately.
Okay, that was the So. shoreline. They were wading and trowing croaker when he thinks it went for a trout. Hooked in the corner of the mouth on 12# mono. |

Uncle D, neat gig for your bud!
Never can tell who can catch as catch can with 12lb mono until they smile for the picture.
Nice picture!
