  1. Youngest was able to sneak away on Mothers day (not my concern now). Figured we should be able to find some jacks roaming outside the jetties. Pelicans were feasting but it was hard for us to zero in on any. His persistance paid off after hours worth if casting and got him a good one. Good 30 minute tussle on pretty heavy gear.
  2. No, not that I have noticed.
  3. Ha! No, but the grackles certainly do when she’s out and about. They no likey.
  4. Flounder meeting Pelican for the first time.
  5. So there has been some official Flamingo sightings in Jones Bay/West Bay Galveston near Harbor Walk posted on Facebook last week and sure enough driving home one afternoon this week one of them flew right over me on 45 flying from East to West towards Jones Bay. Yes, I am sure they were not Spoonbills. The wife showed me the facebook post as I said "they are obviously spoonbills" then after looking at the pics said "well I'll be damned, they are def not spoonbills". Apparently the few flamingos that showed up on Bolivar in 2023 may have stuck around since then. I'll probably be out in the boat this weekend so I'll try to find them and take some pics.
  6. I had a Scoter in my canal this Winter in Galveston. 1st one I have seen since moving there (5years). Took me a while to identify using the Googler but was 100% sure after reading about them. They make a very distinct sound taking off from the water. Saw him/her a couple of times but not sure when it eventually went back North.
  7. Flounder. Born NYE 2024. We got her at 9 weeks and now 4 months old. Training her to be my boat house cat to keep the birds from nesting and making a mess. Slowly getting her used to the outdoors but she is going to be a natural of course. Already wants to go out all the time.
  8. Your right. It must have been 7's he had. I just remember full house on top and trips on bottom. I was a little delirious afterwards plus the exhaustion, I should have gotten up a couple hours earlier.
  9. Pretty quick call. Unfortunately I whiffed. The aggressor didn't have that great a hand but of course scooped (we ran it twice). 5's full of Q's up top and Trip 5's on bottom. It was 1:00am and I was barely awake to begin with so I took the L and went home.
  10. 5 card PLO - AhAdKh5h6d - would you call a twice potted preflop raise that has you covered (one other already all in for less)? I'll leave the amounts and stack sizes out for now. You gamblin' or no?
  11. Gonna post here since we dont have the 2025 thread yet. January TS was not on my bingo card. Guestimating 10” of rain so far today here in Galveston. Went from 3’ foot low tides mid morning to about 3’ high currently. Crazy stuff.
  12. True about the residue. Had a roomate in college that would cook pasta at least two times a week and never wash it. Within a few weeks water would not even come out of the holes anymore. Was disgusting but par for the course with his cleaning habits.
  13. Makes sense. Thanks.
  14. Sorry, never seen this before. What is it?
  15. Wordle 1,283 2/6 πŸŸ©πŸŸ©πŸŸ©β¬›β¬› 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 Been on an eagle drought for a while.
  16. Braved the cold snap and took my son to the jetties on Sunday. Wasn’t too bad when the sun would peek through. Managed three bulls on cut sand trout right at the boat cut in about an hour.
  17. Was looking for this one and finally found it. Crazy! (not my redfish so I don’t have the story).
  18. Love opening up the reds to see whats in there. Never know whats gonna turn up. This one was feasting on mini stone crabs before my shrimp.
  19. Was able to get out for a quick evening wade yesterday. Man I love October! Many fish caught, 28” red and 19” spec kept for the table.
  20. My god, look at that setlist! https://x.com/bradluttrell/status/1840011707202318784

  23. I’m game for a hundy.
  24. Dodged a few storms and waded a couple of hours with my brother and another buddy. Turned out a beauty afternoon with a few fish.
  25. Yesterday afternoon had an hour before dark thirty. Water temp felt like smooth 90+ degrees. Could barely keep any shrimp alive with them boiling in the bait box. 27 and a 20 and a small future bait. The 27 was worth the trip.
