Gorgeous Day" | Get Busy | 01/30/11
Henry Beckham took advantage of today's gorgeous weather to do some back water fishing. He landed and released this small red using cut mullet.
I expect the pelicans wanted some of the cut mullet as well.
Park on a Redfish"" | Tiberias - 22' | 01/30/11
Mr. Park, Adam, and his friend Chad joined me on a redfish hunt today. We found a couple early right in front of the OIFC. They wised up pretty quick putting us back on the hunt. We moved around until we caught a few more just around the corner. They also wised up so we again moved on. We headed for a place that has been producing several bites, but we made several casts without a bite. I was getting disappointed with the area until Chad screamed out "I got one"! Indeed he did...As we danced around the boat making lots of noise our goal was to land this fish. Chad had his hands full with a 24" redfish on 6lb. test line. The fish came to the boat pretty easy until he saw the net. Game on! Stripping line! Second pass by the boat and strip, strip, strip...Third pass was a charm! Blacken redfish for supper! With all the commotion I decided to move to a new area. Chad on his first cast nailed another redfish and Mr. Park hooked up at the same time. Double!! I netted Mr. Park's and it was hooked well. I handed the net to Adam to land Chad's fish. We all vowed that it was Adam's turned to land a fish. We gave Adam five minutes to catch a fish, then we all pitched in to help. Chad of all people hooked up and passed the rod. Adam landed the fish and we called it a day. Lots of excitment on the water for January! I love it!! See ya on the water!
