First Ever Speck

For many years my dad and I would come to Galveston for some offshore fishing out of Galveston Party Boats. On those trips I've caught a variety of different species.

Tonight was a first though. On vacation with my own family now i decided to take up inshore fishing. Alsways seemed awesome, just hadn't got around to it. So tonight I went out to turn the lights off the outside of our rented canal house.

Decided to throw a blue/chrome (it's what was on already) rattle trap just a few times as the mullet were running for their lives. Boom, finally got my first speck. Been wanting to finally get one and did. He's a dink but man was I stoked.

Just wanted to share.

Sorry it's sideways.

it is bigger than my first speck

Congrats man, always good when a plan comes together!

Keep at it, ... it just gets better.

Awesome. First of many more to follow.

Thanks gents. That inshore is addicting.

Congradulations!!

Amazing how one fish can change a person. A little bit of inshore saltwater therapy can go a long way. make me want to head south.

not your last, guaranteed!

Nice fish. First of many more to follow.
