Christmas reds

Daughter and I had a great Xmas day. We caught 22 reds all between 23" and 33". Normally let all go but had family in town that wanted to eat fish. Caught 6 trout also but not very big. Picked up a few dozen clams as a side dish. Daughter is worn out… lol

Great report!

Those are some big fish!

I hope that I’m reading this wrong, but you know the maximum size to harvest redfish is 23"?

They all look about the same size. If he caught 22 and kept the 6 smallest (23"), he’s good to go. They look close, but all 23" fish look close.

Fishing with family on Christmas. Doesn’t get much better than that! Nice catch! Cheers!
