Surf Reds

Found some over slots in the surf Saturday. Tide coming in. Sight casted to several with sub-surface plugs. Many almost beached themselves chasing finger mullet. Caught and released 8 between 23-32". Used soft plastics, plugs, and cut mullet. I was blown away that the water was clear enough to use artificials. Was not the plan going in. Just wanted to hook my girl up on a big one. She said it was her favorite fishing day in our few years together. Mission accomplished.

That’s a healthy looking red, nice job.
Why isn’t she holding it?

“No… it’s okay, I know the way out…”

Didn’t want to get these boys too riled up :slight_smile: here she is with her own feesh. We would have gone out again today if it weren’t for a forecast of “damaging winds, downpours and large hail” this early morning through evening. Mmmmhmmm, riiiight

may i ask what beach you were at?

Pretty sure they beached themselves because they were chasing the girl. Her only flaw is that wedding ring. Nice day.

Haha that’s a theory that I can get behind. I do consider myself a VERY lucky man for two reasons. 1.For us to find these fish and 2 (much much luckier) because she said “yes” to that question that makes your knees buckle.
