Default Potential top 5 state record triple tail
Went 2-3 miles off Cameron Jetty's today targeting triple tail and ling and ended up having a very good day. We had 3 ling and 6 triple tail all over 10lb.s and were heading home when we decided to stop at one more rig and my first drop I saw a good fish in the rig but deep and came back again and jigged my gulp until I drew her out she swallowed my bait turned sideways and cruised away from the rig, after breaking off on a dozen other big trip's by them taking us in the structure, I figured let her get away from the rig before setting the hook. And it worked like a charm after I set the hook her head came up thrashing, that is when mine and everybod in the boats heart dropped. After a very long fight on 12lb. test I got her in and it is pending top 5 state record...

To answer those questions by speckchaser, they are better than good eating and yes they are usually offshore but sometimes we find them in Big Lake. That is one hellauva trip!

Nice fish man. I have never caught one. They have been showing up at our rigs over here but gotta pick ur days to go out there. I lost a big one on monday but not that big. Hell of a fish. I have been wondering bout these fish. They are pretty smart i think because down here when we hook one almost instantly they run back into the rig. anyone know the patterns on these fish? They only show up down here in the late summer when the river drops. Where do they go after that? any good tips on catching them when they are not seen? I mean i know they hang around they legs of rigs and floating stuff etc. But there is gotta be a way to target them. These fish are somewhat new to me.

We weighed her in last night at Cajun Fast Mart it weighed 32lb.'s on water. And 30.8 at Cajun Fast mart. Getting it mounted now- It was on my chronarch with 12lb. berkley big game also. It took well over 30 minutes, to FINESSE her in the net, and yes every one on the boat was just a little nervous after we first saw her.

"I wish I had a liter kept going threw my head the whole time I fought it her to."
