Spring Fishing

With deer season behind us the Pig Team goes fishing. Gary has a nice place on the Gulf of Mexico next to some of the best flats fishing you’ll find.

As you can see from the mess in front of Gary here, the reds were biting! Gary spent a couple days on the water with a friend and they got into some big trout and redfish.

You can guess what was on the menu that week.

Meanwhile, Paul and I had a chance to visit Gary’s place and fish along with his Cousin Lee. We were a little earlier in the season but still found some trout, a flounder and a lone spanish mackerel.

This is my favorite kind of fishing. These fish each have their own characteristics on how to work them once you have them hooked but surprisingly they’ll all hit just about the same bait. Often it’s just a matter of finding them and being there when the bite is on.
