CATCH AND RELEASE

3-19-13 --Had a good day with 2 experienced fishermen.  The predicted strong north wind didn't materialize but we had enough northeast wind to make the redfish and trout come up to feed.  The fishermen only kept one Red that was deep hooked but we caught either 5 or 6 keeper reds and an estimated 15+ keeper trout.  Most of the Reds and the larger trout, i.e. 18-23 1/2 inches came on the first wade, basically standing in one spot.  Had the same two fishermen yesterday but fishing was very tough.  The day began with no wind and little tide movement.  Yesterday we fished from Long Reef to the reefs in San Antonio bay for only a few keeper trout and one flounder.  I like this catch and release - no fish to clean - so we  can fish longer and it's better for future fishing.
