He wanted to say Thank You to Big Bend Gyrene for the measuring stick :smt006
And to BBF for originally having it in the raffle at the social so BBG could win it!
He was right at the top of the slot limit :thumbup: :thumbup:

I am not allowed to say where he caught it or what he caught it on for fear of being disowned :wink:

Great red! :-D

Without a measuring stick I would simply DEEM it LEGAL! :-D
It may be that my sole purpose in life is simply to serve as a warning to others.

I know that guy...lol...I interview him probably once a week down a...well...if i cant say..ill keep it a secret. I work with fisheries research with the FWC and run a creel survey a couple days out of the week. Your dad is a nice guy and always comes in with his limit of redfish..always. I will say this...he is the only person i know that catches redfish in shallow water while trolling lures...
