2021 Salty H20 Fishing Thread!

[DUKFVR]

In all seriousness, hoping we are able to rebound quickly. Anybody have reports from Galveston? Seems I keep seeing Matagorda and south updates only.

Several reports so far not seeing much. Hopefully stays that way.

I’d like to hear your thoughts on the trout and whitetail deer if you’d like to elaborate. In every species on this planet some individuals in that species grow larger than others, it’s solely up to the genetics and other environmental factors that animal encounters. It’s accurate all across the board.

Actually, in whitetail deer, it has been pretty well proven that genetics play a very small role compared to nutrition. I'd be willing to bet the same is true of speckled trout.

Yeah not saying this Capt was fudging cuz I have no reason to believe otherwise but 100+ drum and only two trout ? By all accounts the drum, both black and red, fared better than trout by a whole lot.

That has more to do with the area he looked at than anything. I wouldn't expect to see trout in there this time of year much anyway.

Exactly. He was in chinquapin and went to lake Austin which is very shallow and pretty much only hold trout during the fall.

Redfish, drum, gar and catfish are pretty much the only fish there year round.

Harvest seasons, trophy trout genetics, release over 20, and what else? I’ve been working a bunch so I’ve missed out. I’m still abiding by tpwd limits. So until they tell me otherwise, I’ll take what I need. Bunch of those CPR fish die anyway. You can’t drag a fish back to the boat, flop it on the deck, measure it, post it to Instagram and Facebook then let it go and expect it to live. I’ve found a bunch of dead trophy trout floating that someone thought they were doing good releasing. The Social media reaction seems like a typical “woke” response.

As for the rest of it, I skipped the last few pages of this thread on purpose... not bothering with that discussion. lol
