What a morning we had out on the water with Bethany and the kiddos on the 4 hr Morning Charter Trip with Russell & Sons Outdoors! The conditions were not ideal with a cold front that blew in the night before - Redfish Bay had a light ripple on the water with the 20mph north wind but very calm smooth ride in Capt. Cory's Freedom Warrior.

The first three or four stops we came up empty with bait still on our hooks.  Capt. Cory continued to search and finally pointed out a spot where a couple of mullet were jumping.   He anchored the boat and cast our lines out into a couple of potholes off of a point.   Within just a couple of minutes we were hooked up with a keeper Redfish.  These powerful inshore fighters really put up a great fight, making those rods bend and the drags sing. Bethany's son hooked up almost right away, after landing the first fish and then it was game on with constant action the rest of the trip. We stayed there working the area and catching multiple Redfish and the occasional Black Drum for another two hours.

What a great day I had out on the water with Eric and his kids!  Despite conditions, I was thrilled to take Eric and his family on our Half Day Morning Trip.

The weather was cold, in the upper 30's, with 25mph winds and clear skies. The water conditions were extremely murky from the strong front that pushed through in the early morning hours.  We chose to start the day late due to the front and started by throwing shrimp on a carolina rig for Black Drum and Red Drum.  Once we located some fish it was game on.  The kids were able to catch dinner for the family and release several more.

Throughout the trip, Eric and the kids were an absolute pleasure to work with - he was engaged, enthusiastic, and his daughter was a quick learner. I could tell he was having a wonderful time watching the kiddos reel in fish.  We were able to capture some great photos and videos of the trip, which I'm sure Eric will treasure.
