Allthough this trip was a few weeks ago, I figured I would share it with you anyway. The day started out with a friend and I putting in at our local boat ramp (East Galveston Bay complex) with the fog socked in so thick that without the GPS we would have never made it back to the boat launch since the fog never did lift that day. After bouncing around from spot to spot that morning waiting for the water to start moving we finally found ourselves in a mess of fish, my bud was fishing with Assaisn Paddletails for a short bit. While I started out with the big-eyed mullet in the geko color and slow rolled it over shell mud bottom in about 3 ft of water, it wasn't long after that my bud had gotten tired of having to replace his lure ever time he had a bite or landed a fish. He decided to give the big mullet a try in the same geko color I was using, and on his very first cast he landed and released one of the largest trout of the day a nice 23" fat sow. Never again that day did we have to replace a lure due to those trout teeth that seem to devour any other soft plastics. Well all in all we landed somewhere in the ball park of 20 trout and 10 reds for the day releasing all that that we knew had a good chance at making it and all on the same tail. Well except for the ones I lost to the oysters!!!
