finally, got to go fishing for the first time in over 5 years today. my roommate has a friend that owns a beach house on boliver peninsula just across galveston bay. we were roughing it today. not! anyway, the first two fish (redfish were all i (we) caught) were not big enough to keep. the first one was just over 15 inches and the second just over 16. they have to be within 20 - 24 inches to keep. otherwise they must be over 28 inches and you have to tag them from your license. the third one i caught got away because he wrapped the line around a barnacle covered pier pylon and snapped the line. number 4 however i landed. cooking it up for supper now on the grill with fresh jalapeno, garlic, bell pepper, lemon, crushed sea salt and butter. the first three pics are the canal and garage of the house....the next are obviously the fish....
