Took a trip to Buchanan early August.  Water was a little low but I managed to find a sweet spot to set two trotlines with about 15 hooks a piece.  The next morning pulled the first fish off and she was 20lbs, two hooks down and I pulled off the 12 lb blue.  Last night I did not fair as well as I only pulled off a few small ones and the 10 lb blue.  In total we caught 20 fish.  19 on trot line and Roger caught a big channel cat the night before. Ended up with 35lbs of filets.  Not a bad trip.


Matagorda Trip
 

In early June I went by myself down to Matagorda for Some Triple Tail and Trout Fishing with my good friend Capt. Lee Warmke.  On the first morning we managed a small stringer of specs from the kayak, then spent the rest of the day looking for Triple Tail.  Fished most of west bay before we finally struck pay dirt.  Hooked and boated my first tripletail, 13lbs.  The Next morning found us in East Bay and a limit by 10am.  Biggest Trout of my life, 27 inches.  Not a bad day when you limit out early and start throwing back 24 inch trout.


2010 Season



With two long nights of hunting, 84 miles on the Polaris, 12 plugs, three cans of fix-a-flat, and a few 5 hour energy drinks, Lee Warmke and Myself, managed to shoot a few for the cooler.  Lee shoots the first four then it was my turn.  After deciding it was not going to be my night we headed back to the truck.  Less than 200 yards from the truck we spotted a heard.  This bull stopped and looked in our direction, giving me very little to shoot at.  I put the cross hairs of the Browning A-Bolt .300 on the white patch under his chin and squeezed the trigger.  150 Yard Shot in the adams-apple.  Field Dressed 160-180lbs.  32 1/2" main beam, 25" inside spread.
