id take 35 to san antonio, the 77 route goes through too many towns for me, and i hate the loop in victoria... seriously, i hate it with a passion. but on the other hand, i just got back from port a/aransas pass, trout and reds are kinda slow, gaffys and whiting are about the only thing of keeping size we caught(which we released because...well they are gaffys and whiting..) with the exception of a 75# black drum(estimate... my scales only go up to thirty)it took 20 minutes to land on 20# braid and broke my metal landing net when we got him close, had to reach down and pull him up by the lip... it was a blast but for the most part everything is still a little slow... and windy...
