Thanks Jamie for the reply. Yes Sir found a couple of places and just got lucky several of them would bite. The smallest was 9.75". The largest was just a little over 11.50" and weighed 1.61 Lbs. Trying for that 12" plus!

Thanks Will! Two pound Rios are not that common but they are out there. The only other one I saw was one that Fred (Rionator) had caught fishing the east end of the Guadalupe River. The fish was a little over 12" and was super fat. That fish in my opinion was easily over two pounds. Fred just released it. That was one beautiful fish! Side Note: Have you been catching any Rios?

You should not have any problems getting a Rio this year at all. There are plenty of them out there. We need to make a road trip to several areas that are on my radar screen!
