How's Surfside looking?
If you go to the bar/marina under the bridge you can do pretty good. Keep us updated.
Glad y’all are getting it back together.. Keep your fingers crossed, looks like a slow year for those monsters. We really appreciate the Cajun Navy when we have trouble here. Godspeed and tight lines.
Wow Fourchon, looked up Fourchon and it looks like you might know a thing or many about fishing for redfish. I am so jealous more than a little bit about your location. You’re in the Mecca. Wow, just Wow.
It’s a friend’s 24’ flat bottom. He’s a retired coach and does some guiding now. I’m not much of a boat guy but it’s a pretty nice boat.
Thanks for the response, Fredfish. Good day on the water… better day in the kitchen.
Reds in backwater pockets.
I would head to Galveston. Get some bait and find a pier. There are many.
Good advice Sam. I wish everybody knew that…and yet, every year.🙈
Staying in Holiday Inn Seaside Resort way out on the west end. Went to the surf on 11 mile road where there is supposed to be plentiful shell. Well…none. Bummer. Make a new plan Stan.
Leaving tomorrow for a three day vacation in Galveston. Gonna do some wade fishing in the surf and maybe the bay. Not gonna get anywhere near San Luis Pass. Stay tuned.
Thanks El Rod, tight lines.
You’re right Fredfish. I hadn’t cooked flounder that way for probably 30 years. I threw on a couple strips of bacon for good measure.
Sure enough. Tight lines.
Thanks for responding Flytier. We caught three other flounder and a very nice redfish. We split them up.
Caught 9 miles upriver from the mouth of the Colorado River. 3 in. Gulp (nuclear chicken) was the ticket. Sautéed and slathered in a sopping sauce containing olive oil, butter, lemon juice, garlic salt, and cilantro. Topped with lemon slices, onions and bacon strips. Bake covered at 350 for 35 minutes. Take out and slather with more sopping sauce. Broil on high for 5-7 minutes. Going, catching, preparing, and eating were all equal parts of enjoyment.
