Whacked the fish this weekend!
 

We put a whoopin on the fish today starting out with the Bull Redfish. These fellas didn't want to take a lot of time out to fool with the Bulls so we anchored up first thing this morning and a few minutes later we were done with thathttp://74.55.204.178/images/smilies/rockon.gif.

We headed to a trusty slot Red spot and put a few in the cooler along with 1 Trout.

Then the tide got LOOOOWhttp://74.55.204.178/images/smilies/hair.gif and stayed low for a while. We put the trolling motor down and went to work. We found enough Reds to complete the limit and then got on a pretty hot Trout bite.

At this point we had about a dozen or so Trout in the box and the bite cooled down. We went back to work running and gunning until we found another stack of Trout and then beat 'em downhttp://74.55.204.178/images/smilies/shoot.gif.

It was a great day with another 100% Navy veteran captain and crew.

Hoo Yah!

Nice fish.

How far apart in the family tree are those redfish and what we have around here in freshwater Drum?

They seem to share similiar traits.

I would think that they are pretty close. I haven't had a lot of exposure to the freshwater variety except for the ones that call Gaspagoo in Louisiana. They look closer to a Black Drum than they do a Red Drum.
