Yep couple of months ago. My first redfish.
I had no idea you could put a photo on a cake. My wife had this made for my birthday yesterday.
My son is hooked on fishing now. I was having a hard time getting him to go with me. Now I don't think I will have a problem. Calaveras Lake is so much easier to fish than Canyon Lake. So I just have to take him to Calaveras.
Had a great day at the lake. Caught a 23.5" a 28" and my son caught the big one 29.5"
Great day at the lake and a lot of meat on those fish.
Nice strippers. I wish we had them like that at Canyon Lake where I am. Do you catch'em that big all the time? Great job by the way.
Calaveras Lake, you don't need a boat to catch large fish. Catfish bite all year redfish start in March and go to September. You can still catch redfish all year round, but a lot slower in winter. People catch 20" to 25" redfish even without a boat and the catfish are huge in that lake.
We just fried it up, and made shrimp scampi to go with it.
I had a losing streak 4 or 5 months. Was getting depressed. But I go to the lake to relax if I catch fish it's a bonus.
Calaveras Lake in San Antonio Tx is a cooling lake for the power plant. The power plant in inbetween Calaveras Lake and Lake Braunig and it uses both lakes for cooling. Both Lakes completely man made. The redfish can survive due to the warm water, but cannot reproduce. So they have to be restocked every year.
Tambok is a Filpino word for Fatso. My wife is Skinny so she is Niwang. Pronounced Tombok and kneewong.
Yes dinner and with the left over bait shrimp scampi
20 inches and limited to 3
They were doing it again and I got a look at them this time. They were Gars. So I guess they were all gars all along.
