I slept through the blitz that Mikey is talking about!!! Best day for me was a foggy July day about 8 years ago. Myself and two buddies launched out of Rockport and couldn't see a thing. Made it out to the spot and we immediately started banging cookie cutter 15 pounders. I stopped keeping track at 10. Anyhow, action starts to slow down, and I throw my baitcaster out with a hish tail out about 30 feet and put the rod in the holder to drink a beer and have a smoke. Anyhow, I see a tail come out of the water bigger than I've ever seen. Fought the fish for about 15 minutes (I was way outclassed), and got the fish in the boat...44 1/2" fork measurement. No scale, so can't say how big. Anyhow, we already had six fish, so it had to go back. At the time I remember thinking to myself I'd catch another like that, which I never even came close.
