My daughter, an awesome fisher girl, landed 16 Black Drum in two days of fishing with 11 on the first day and 5 the next day.  The Drum ranged from about 20 to 50 pounds and we estimate she landed about 480 pounds of fish over the two days.  We went out early on the third day, but were forced off the water when the winds picked up to 25+ mph.  It was a fun trip with lots of great memories.  I am a lucky dad to have a daughter that enjoys fishing as much as she does.

It was also great to meet my son and his wife at Gus' in Texas City for a seafood dinner.  Great company and really good food.
