Took the kayak and fiance to Aransas Pass Saturday morning. Started out around Hog Island. Winds were howling but the fishing was good. Caught several redfish, flounder, and a few baby jacks. Best baits were Berkley pogie in white and New Penny Shrimp Gulps. Ended up keeping one Redfish for dinner. Then around noon loaded up and headed to ingelside. Much more protected and fished with live shrimp and Berkey Gulps New Penny. Fiance caught three keeper drum (good eating size) and mangrove snappers. Also caught several flounder and redfish. Hooked a nice fish that broke me off. About an hour later I returned the scene of the crime and caught a nice redfish that had eighteen inches of flourocarbon leader hanging out of his mouth. You guessed it, my leader. Thats a first. Ton of skippies too. Anyone else seem to notice an overabundance of skipjacks, they seem to be everywhere. Great day fishing. Of course always is when I'm with my best friend. Even when she outfishes me. Lol.

Yes, I have noticed a plague of skipjacks; they seem to have become the most abundant fish around.

Nice report - and what luck to catch the same fish twice!
