Surf Report (Galveston...Terramar Beach) 6-10

[Johnnytx]

My family and I have been staying at a beach front home in Terramar Beach since Saturday (came back today). Of course the surf has been rocking pretty good but the water clarity has been pretty darn good, especially yesterday with green water to the beach! It was a little too rough to wade the second gut so instead I decided to break out the long rod to see what was cruisin' around in the third gut. After a few casts with the cast net, I had a couple of mullet ready to be cut up and throw on the line. First cast resulted in the ever so mentiond hard head catfish. I then walked out and gave the surf rod a heave and walked it back in. After about 3 minutes the rod tip started to bounce and my oldest son Brett grabbed it, gave it 5 cranks then slammed the hook home. This one gave a little bit of a fight on the surf rod so I was thinking it was a small black tip. After a minute or two I see lots of silver flashing as Brett pulls it in and to my surprise it was a big fat speck!! This one measure right at 26 1/8"! I told Brett a good while back that if he caught on 26 incher or better I'd get it mounted for him. I hardly thought it would of been at this time with a piece of cut mullet being used as bait!

Throughout the remainder of the day we caught probably 8 to 10 black tip sharks ranging from 1 to 2 1/2 foot (pups), one more solid speck @ 23", a 23" red and few more hard heads. The bite was non stop throughout the day.

The specks are in there but just too darn rough to give it all you've got. I'll tell you one thing...as soon as the surf lays down, it's gonna be on big time!

Here are a couple of pictures of Brett's trout. Keep in mind the boy is 14 years old, 6'3" and a solid 285 pds.! He makes me look like a midget.lol

Nice fish! What position does he play, D-line or O-line? That young man could have some fun in high school ball.
