Details: Black Drum
Caught this 32" black drum today under a bridge. Casted in between the pilings and let the cut crab drift with the current. It was a pretty fun fight because ...more I was fishing with 20lb braid which made it tough to get him away from the pilings. Got hit 3 times and hooked into 2. Had to end the day short bc of shortage of bait. Hoping I'm able to hook into another this trip. @Giff_Giffin
Details: Spotted (Speckled) Trout
Caught this 18" trout just after @mrwigeon caught a 24" red. The fishing just started to get good in the bay and the baitfish have moved in. There's ...more a lot of freshwater in the bay due to a ton of rain which makes it hard to catch saltwater fish. @Giff_Giffin
Details: Gafftopsail Catfish
Caught a lot 5"-6" menhaden in the cast net and used them live on a 1/2oz Carolina rig. Got into a school of gafftop and ended up catching 4 including ...more 3 stingrays(not the best mix). Biggest one was 20". Temp in the 80s with scattered thunderstorms. @Giff_Giffin
Details: Gulf Flounder
18.5in. First flounder of the trip for me. Fishing has been rough because large amounts of freshwater came into the bay due to the tropical storm couple weeks ago. ...more All that have been bitting are gars and catfish. I was finally able to hook up into a flounder today. Think the water has just started to settle. Today was in the 80s with scattered storms throughout the day. @Giff_Giffin @mrwigeon

Caught this flounder by casting along our pier. Missed about 3-4 and had one spit out the hook as I was pulling it up. It was a pretty good day. We caught 3 flounder ...more and 1 keeper red. @Giff_Giffin @Brax_Giffin
Details: Bull Shark
Caught this 42" bull shark off the our pier yesterday on a piece of mullet that was left over the night before. The mullet smelled terrible and I had to hold ...more my breath to put it on the hook. As I casted my rod mullet guts flew everywhere and got all over my leg. I threw out the rest of the mullet because I couldn't handle the smell. But just after 5 min my reel starts screaming. @Giff_Giffin
Details: Gulf Flounder
Caught this flounder on a gulp mullet on a jig head. I casted it along a pole on a pier and just as it hit the bottom he hit it. We put him on a stringer and cleaned ...more him just before we left. I caught the inshore slam but the trout and redfish were both too small. @Brax_Giffin @Giff_Giffin

Details: Jack Crevalle
Fishing "the calm before the storm" water was extremely flat. Had been catching about 60 10-14" mullet to use as bait. Pretty much good for the rest ...more of the week. Bait had been soaking for about an hour and had a few bites on the cut mullet on my other rod. We were literally talking about the jack my brother caught earlier this week and how we wouldn't catch another and then I catch this 46" 34lber
Details: Bull Shark
Stayed up until midnight last night and caught 3 fish in all. 2 big gars and this bull shark. @bristerconser05 caught a 62" and a 46" gar. I caught this ...more 34" bull shark. We missed a lot of sharks (5'+) but they all snapped our line because we were using mono leader for reds.
