What should I stuff this big girl with? Hooked her in Turners this morning around 930 just off a little reef. Thought I had a croaker until she got about 15 feet from the boat and decided she didn't want to swim that direction any more. Jaw was so thick I almost couldn't get my boga on. 23" and a little over 6 lbs live weight, down to 5.5 at Cal Point 4 hours later.
Water was pretty clear in Turners, crystal clear toward the south end of the ship channel. Talked to a guy that was cleaning some reds and flounder at Cal Point who said they had caught everything up at the LNG. He said, "We caught a bunch of trout up there all of them around 14", but I hate messing with those things so we threw them all back!

Sorry about the bad pic, one-handed with a sorry camera phone.
Oh yeah, avoid Big Lake Hwy between Country Club and Gauthier, sat waiting on the construction crew for 20 minutes today.
