Texsun II Again
August 2001
Capt. Johnny Williams of the Texsun
II took a boat load of us to an area about 50 miles South of Galveston
Island. The first area we fished was near the V. A. Fogg. We were fishing Spanish
Sardines fished at or near the bottom over a wreck and didn't catch very many
Snapper. We then moved on to another area and the Snapper action really picked
up. My daughter has been plagued with a bad case of tennis elbow that kicked
in and she couldn't hardly hold
on to her fishing pole (yes, she takes after her father) Dad had to actually
hold on to her pole for her while she reeled in our biggest Snapper of the
trip.
We ended our trip with 10 Snapper, not bad. Definitely
had a few good fish fries and some wonderful memories.
This has started to become a yearly tradition that my
wife has been the proud sponsor of. Fewer things in life are better than to
spend a day fishing with your kids. As the commercial says - For
everything else, there's MasterCard.
