1st time to fish in a month. Struck out at my first 4 spots, was running the bayous headed to another set of spots when I passed specks busting shrimp on the surface. Made a u turn and boated 25 real quick, then had a 30lb red inhale a 13 in speck I was reeling in.
Had some live croakers, so switched to them and hung into bull reds under the school of specks. Got spooled once, broken off once, and had a 40 plus in red on the line for 20 kon and hook pulled right at the boat. The only red I landed was this 30in er, prob 8 or 9lbs.
In all I needed up catching around 50 specks in about 2 hours. Bite died once the tide changed, was 106 deg anyway, so time to go!
