Monster Reds

Matt J · 10-28-2008, 01:23 AM

Fished Perdido Pass area Sunday and Monday with my father-in-law. Wet lines at noon on Sunday. At 6pm, had nothing in the box except for 1 Spanish :sleeping. Decided to hunker down on the bay side of the bridge until SOMETHING hit. No more live shrimp at this point, so put out 3 lines with live pinfish. Ziiiiiiiinnnnnnnggggg!!!!!! Monster redfish, one after another, for the next 2 hours. 8:30 PM we called it a night. 7 Bull Reds 32-38 inches,all revived properly and released.

Monday was WINDY!!! Braved the wind and slop. Again, redfish not hungry around bridge and too choppy in the pass so we headed out the pass and around the Jetty. Caught a Rat Red. Then got lucky and landed 2 nice Pomps. Also got two of the biggest ladyfish I've ever seen. Ended the day trolling 2 Stretch 25's up and down the beach with no luck. Good day considering the conditions. Time to drive back to B'ham. :boo

2 Day Total:

7 Bull Reds, 2 Pomps, 2 Spanish, 1 Rat Red, 1 small Mangrove, and 2 Ladyfish

All released except the Pomps and Spanish
