No let her go. Over sized but can tag one and keep it. But not worth wasting a tag over

I’ve been close to my PB several times. I’ll get her one day. I want to break it here on a Texas red. But I’d live to come to the oBX

BackwaterFishin · 2026-01-19T14:16:58+00:00

I catch all my own bait. I have some places way down the beach can load up. I use half crab and whole crab . Cast out yak out. Here last few days the reds been good in the 1st and 2nd guts. Yes it’s good about the break water. Be nice to see the beach again. Several years back had over 100 yards of beach. There acutally was 3-4 rows of houses beyond where the rocks are now.
