I left the whisker fish alone today and target redfish for the first time at Calaveras. Let me say I'll Do this again. I fished form 630 am to 830 am and was wore out. I landed 17 redfish in two hours and had a blast. The smallest went 21 inches and the biggest going 26 inches. I kept three for the table and released the rest obviously(limit 3. I left the camera at home but will be back at it again tommorow. I've never expeirenced reds like this. Completely awesome.Back to back casts..tore my rattle trap to pieces. I can honestly say that since i have gottenback from the war..i have been blessed. I have caught more limits of cats,reds,specs and whites than ever before. It's been so much fu enjoying the outdoors.  .  .  .

Great job! I am confused are those freshwater reds? Calaveras is located near San Antonio isn't it? Native Texan should know better.... Glad your back home safely

Looks like a lot of fun. I have fished for reds in the gulf but never in fresh water. How do you catch the fresh water variety? What type lure and technique.
Thanks

Good looking catch man, mom is saying you need to be a guide. How much does it cost to take out a scout/mortar. Heading down to Corpus this weekend, hopefully ill be able to post some good pics!!!!!!!
