Default 10-16-11 Big Lake reds
Hit the lake sunday morn and the wind was bad on the west side, so we decided to get up in the marsh and look for some reds. We found em, sat in one spot and caught red after red! Kept 4, lost a few at the boat. got out and looked for a few specks but didn't find anything other than a lot of sand trout and a few little specks. Even caught a couple of croaker and decided to keep em and see if all the hype about fried croaker are true. fried em last night, and it is, they are great!

reds were caught on gulp shrimp, sandies on just about anything els
