President's Day Weekend Report-San Luis Pass

[MinorityShack]

This weekend was great for wade/beach fishing. Finally the waters and the air started heating up. We fished the north side of San Luis Pass Sunday between 9:30-3:30. My crew caught 14 fish total; 2 sheepshead, 8 Stingrays, and 4 Ladyfish. The only reason we stopped was because the tide came in and we couldn't fish off the first sandbar anymore without waders. We kept the two sheepshead and filleted them.


The two sheepshead we caught were similar in size, 19 and 19.5 inches long from ugly teeth to tail and between 12 and 15 pounds. My scale isn't that precise. Like i said we caught 8 rays and as you can see, from my bottom feeding leader, I caught 2 rays simultaneously myself. It was a fun day. We didn't mind the stingers, we got used to it rather quickly. Many beers were had afterward. Hope you guy's weekend was as fun as mine.

[Curmudgeon]

Sounds like a good time. Thanks for the report.

Good catch, folks. Cut the wings off the rays, dig out the meat and make you some balls. Salt and pepper, roll in corn meal and deep fry. Eat three or four and you can throw your Viagra away.

I'd say your scale was a little more than a little off, LMAO.. Good deal on getting something to bite though.

good report, but you might try fishing without those store bought leaders and make your own. A 12-15 lb. sheephead will straighten those swivels out. Be careful wading at the pass, there's been many drownings there.

Great report and pics. Lord Bless.

Thanks for the report ! Sounds like a good time . How are those stingray fins ? You're too young to care about Viagra . H.maier is old and decrepit and has to obsess about such things . Pay no mind . Stay on the sand .

There use to be a couple of guys on here...shutout and Muddskipper that had a killer microwave recipe for those sheepheads..maybe they'll post it back up. If they don't see this, I'm pretty sure robalo has it too
