Advanced Skittering Techniques

Tricked this trophy into biting last night while prefishing for a tourney. Not what we were looking for but still a stud. CCA lobbied TPWD and LDWF to make the seagull fishery along the coast catch and release only, so we took a quick pic and watched her fly away.

They go by length in Texas, not weight

Truee... Is that beak to tail length, wingspan, or combined length?

I think it's some kind of formula factoring them all in. Beak to tail, and wingspan.

DO NOT pinch the tail on them gulls they are tight on that, was it banded?

It has broad shoulders...... I'd say 2 1/2 pounds.

I thought seagulls carried all their weight in head cause they had big brains?

mr crab you must be fishing the Cops helping Kids fishing tournament. I saw the Port Arthur civic center was a packed parking lot last night. Looks like they are having a good turnout and that is great. Boats at all the hotels in Port Arthur. Good luck out there today!

It was crazy out there yesterday. Never seen anything like it. We didn't bring home a check, but I think we were top 10? Buncha elite tournament fishermen out there yeaterday. Couple behemoth flounder were caught. Both around 5.5lbs which is crazy because they were so skinny. Big around as a large pizza. Good time and a good charity. Just wish we coulda represented a lil better on our home lake. Weighed in a good one and lost a big girl early. If she hadn't pulled off, we woulda been in the money for sure. But hey that's fishing.....only gonna get so many big bites, and you gotta make em count when you get em.

Yea it was crazy crab, had a good time and the one that got away was min. 25"

Still mad about it. I should have been watching my bait, not daydreaming.
