stay classy rodeo fans

We caught 5-6 white trout in 3-5lb range once about 25 miles offshore

You're probably correct.
It's also sad that 9 out of the 10 State white trout records were caught in the 70s. (the other one was caught in '81)

I was hoping to see the other pics.

all in good time...the rowdiness should begin in 5-6 hours...we're counting on ya'll to help us out

Yeah, lets teach our kids to killl fish in the children's division like hardheads for no reason. Keep it trashy, tarpon rodeo.

Same could be said for those big arse reds, no way they're eating those wormy things.

You can cut them out. You never coubillion a big red? Your missing out.
