Had a great fishing weekend with Some good friends Kench and Lindsey. We went down for the weekend to there home in Port Lavaca. Saturday morning we left at 4:30, got bait and were on the water by 6:30 in Matagorda.
Lindsey and Kench were hitting them hard early and Kim hooked into something that ran hard and she fought it for about 35 minutes. Got it to the boat and it wouldnt come up. Must have been a huge ray. We cut the line and went back to fishing.
I started to get into a few trout and ended up with only 5 but in the range of 19-22 inches. Solid stringer. Lindsey and Kench cought the rest of them and Kim had a few undersize fish and spent the morning getting over the battle with the big ray.
We decided to go in at about 10:00 running out of bait and with a bite slowing down and had 22 total trout.
Kench caught a nice 28 incher for the days big fish.
Then back to the house to clean up and head out to Poco Bueno. There we got to see a huge blue marlin come in for a weigh. 508 lbs! The boats that came in were incredible and more expensive to run the thing on gas that weekend than most of the things we own! Rumor has it that the entry fee was 10000 dollars and by invitation only.
Back to the house by 900 and hit the bed pretty early. (Up at 4 am without a nap wore us all out.)
So, to sum it all up.... Did a little fishing, some hunting ealy sunday morning, watched two movies, ate some good food and had a great time! Here are some picture from the fishing trip!
