|
|
I know I'm a lil bit late on this report but I thought I would go ahead and share anyway. Well it was kinda short and sweet bc we had a front that was forecasted to be moving in around noon. So I headed out around 8am to see if I could find a few trout. Fished the Aransas Pass area and started out with about 6 undersized reds that were all quickly released. I was fishing an area that was about 3' deep and real close to a channel. After I weeded through all the rat reds the dink trout bite started. And I mean these trout were DINKS !!! LOL, some were around the 10' mark. Hahaha, anyway I made a move and fished some pot holes over grass and picked up one of my keeper trout for the day that went 18". By this time it was almost 10:00am and I was about ready to head back to the dock when all the sudden my plug got NAILED !!!! Drag rippin and line runnin off my curado I finally finessed the fish toward the boat. I got my net ready and it was a very nice 24" trout. I would just call it a day with the two keepers and head back to the dock.
The fish were delicious and went on the bbq pit along with the rest of all the food we made that evening. Food was definitely more impressive than the game !!!  _________________ Come out & gig some flounder with Straight to The Point Guide Service!! http://floundergiggin.com/ for more info

Super Bowl weekend has traditionally been a fishing getaway time for me. Easy to get a spot all to yourself if you know what I mean. But this weekend was dedicated to desalinization of all my gear in the driveway. It's kind of a spectacle for the neighbors to watch.
Good report and glad you got to "rip some lips"  |
