My first bull red! or any red for that matter

Caught on a frozen horse mullet head, 250lb cable leader with an 8/0 circle hook. Taped out 40inches total length. Penn Battle 8000 on Extra Heavy Ugly Stik 12 ft surf rod.

Caught at 800 east block of folly in my backyard.

Nice fish man, heard the big reds are running good right now

Bragging may not bring happiness,
but no man having caught a large fish,
goes home through the alley.

that is our 5th over 40, with several over 30. 1 well over 50, but didn’t have the tape measure at the time so it will forever be a guess!

Good job, Stanj. A first anything is (usually) pretty cool. Well, when it has to do with fishing…:wink: Congrats.

Way to go stanjwarren! Finally a bull red off Folly.

pretty awesome first red!

I grew up surf fishing in TX, may have to go give it try here! nothing like catching those bulls in the surf at night.
