Lost Reds

Went out Sunday the weather was bad ,high winds kept me from fishing the flats .Raining really close to us but not on us. I was running the Flipper Boat for Dolphin Docks in Port Aransas. We tried anchoring in the Aransas Channel ,like 20 other boats . We did manage a few whiting some sand trout, one small rat red .We hooked up 3 big fish ,probably oversized reds .Two were lost because of someone trying to set the hook half way through the fight and getting slack in the line. The other was lost when it dove into the rocks and broke off. Then went to fishing at the ferries .Caught some whiting and sand trout .Not much excitement there except some one saw a huge red fish and calmly asked what is this big red looking fish swimming next to the boat? Apparently I forgot to tell them we are supposed to catch those. Anyways it was a hard day fishing .
