Had to run an errand back in D'Iberville, MS this morning. Keep my gear in the Jeep and passed my old spot where I caught that 22" last year. Casted a few times near weeds on shore then decided to drag my Gulp mullet lure across the bottom along pier. Thought it was hung up, let out some line, walked back and forth and then it started pulling. Sucker swallowed my lure whole. Right at 15" and fat. Supper tonight.

Hey guys! I’m finally back! Sorry it took so long. I got a new phone for Christmas, and had to transfer my apps. I procrastinated moving my apps because I couldn’t find my log in info and I kept forgetting to check. These photos are from Easter.
