This Bull Redfish was caught last fall (2000) at Rutherford beach close to Cameron. Here is his story. We just wanted to picnic at the beach. I always bring my gear anyway and decided to toss a line in. A couple of guys down the way gave me a finger mullet and I caught a few catfish but that was it. We were getting ready to leave when I felt something I thought it was just another hard-head, but soon realized it was something else. He weighed 45 lbs and it took me a good 15 minutes to get him in, I had to wade into the surf and grab him by the tail, I was using a freshwater outfit with 10lb test. Very exciting, can't wait to try it a again.
