Rachel and I headed to the RGV this weekend for a quick visit. I met my dad on saturday and we headed straight to Port Mansfield and out to the jetties to try to find some tarpon. We fished the jetties and outside bars in the surf for most of the afternoon, and couldn't make it happen for tarpon. We didn't see any rolling fish, and there were quite a few boats out there to contend with. We decided to spend the last couple hours of the day fishing in the bay, and found some fish just south of the port. We caught 4 keeper reds and 5 keeper trout in about an hour and a half.
The next day, I went out with my father in law, Frank. We fished out of Arroyo City, and had a good day. We started south of the Arroyo, but ended up finding fish north of Green Island. We ended up with 19 fish. 16 trout, and 3 reds. We brought a nice 10 fish limit back to the dock and we really enjoyed the cooler weather! Frank caught this bruiser trout with a big appetite! The hot bait this weekend was a Strike Pro Baby Buster. I had alot of fun fishing this bait, and can't wait to head south again to give em another dose of it!!
