Went out this morning to relax from daily reffing of volleyball. Drifted from. Pita almost to the shoreline with only a couple dink trout. Began working shorelines and it paid off. I got slammed. First came this red that had 8 spots.
Then a flounder, a couple more reds, and finally a trout.
I decided to try for a grand slam and went looking for drum south of Pita, where I saw a school the other day. No luck. However, what I did find was very brown water. So much so that I could hardly see my drift sock behind me.
I released all fish except the flounder which was stuffed with shrimp stuffing and topped with a lemon wine sauce.

Looks delicious! Sounds like a fun trip! _________________ Great captains, the stuff of legend, are made not by what they have caught, but by what they have given back. |

I keep hearing about this 'so-called' Volleyball reffing business, but I have yet to see the mythical Zia at a Bluff game this year!?!?! What gives? (We got stuck with one of my absolute least favorite Head Refs the other night - I won't say where as not to incriminate anyone [but having been a longtime baseball and kickball Umpire, I have earned the right to criticize poor officiating ]).
Bring on the Zia, I say!!!
Oh yea, I nearly forgot, with this being a fishing forum and all that -
Nice Slam, and an even nicer CPR on the non-flounders! |

Hey, CS, don't know why. Only Bluff matches I've had this year were middle school. I'm excited about next week. I will be calling 3 matches at the TAPPS state tourney in San Antonio.
Back to fishing, today I found a 24" red and 4 17"-18" trout along Laguna Shores this morning |

Well good for you! If they choose refs according to their past performance for the State level tournaments, then they have made an EXCELLENT choice! Plus he's a decent fisherman too!!!!!  |

It was. To go with it we had grilled yellow squash and baked potato with creamed cremini mushrooms. |
