SALTWATER FISHING IN DECEMBER NEAR CORPUS CHRISTI TX IS TOUGH

Steve Baxter and I went to Ingleside Navy Yard this weekend and had a good time fishing and checking out the restraunts in Ingleside, but didn't catch any fish worth keeping. We did manage to find a good place to buy fresh shrimp, so it wasn't a totally wasted trip.

A common pose, waiting for the fish to bite.


There were many large ships coming through the area, Ingleside is a deep water port.

We had plenty of sun and good weather, but not much in the way of fishing action.

Steve catches the only fish of the weekend, a monster catfish weighing in at about a pound.

mmm, catfish

The Great Fish Roundup of Ought-Nine

Lake Calaveras, 8-9 June

Darrell and Augie with the impressive stringer of fish. This is prior to the Darrell's big catch of an 8# redfish.

Darrell's 4# catfish

The 8# redfish Darrell and I collaborated on. This fish got on my line, and as I brought it toward the bank it ran into Darrell's line. It then snapped my line, and I thought it was a goner. Fortunately it tangled in Darrell's line enough to where he was able to bring it in. It weighed in at 8#'s.

We had a really nice time fishing, up to the time we got to the back yard and started cleaning them.

Night Fishing, Calaveras

I went night fishing last night at Calaveras with Augie. We did OK, I caught two nice redfish and Augie caught a redfish and two catfish. All in all it was a good night. We fished from the bank and used shrimp and worms. We hope to go again soon--here are the pictures.

Brazos Bend Bass

Here are some bass I caught on my trip to Brazos Bend last week. Thought I would show before and afer filleting. Will be back to Brazos Bend soon for three days camping and fishing. Would like to catch some catfish out of the river, but not holding my breath.
