Went out about 8:15 and started at my 2 min HH. Caught 1 keeper trout on topwater/dropper combo. Started toward the backyard and stopped just short of there because I had a hunch. Sure enough! Trout weren't thick but enough to pique interest. Mainly threw my usual tequila gold sand eel. At first the bite was on a slow retrieve. About 9AM I was getting nothing. Hmmmm! Increased the speed of my retrieve and started catching again. Dink/keeper ratio was about 5/1. Better than the 20/0 on Wed.

The first 3 keepers I caught I released when I remembered that Mary took a bunch of fish to her family in McAllen this weekend, so I started keeping what I caught. Wound up taking home 5 trout and a drum.

The drum and biggest trout was 18"

OT. Got a chance to go hog hunting yesterday. Didn't get one but did see 15 turkey.

My friend shot a hog with a crossbow just before sundown and it ran into the brush. After 30 min of crawling around in the thick south Texas brush we decided to put an end to our quest of finding him.
