Well April 27 our first Redfish event for the year - Galveston Redfish Series.  My partner and I have been on some really good redfish, however, with the southerly winds, incoming tides, etc... turned our very shallow water fishing turned into a foot to a foot and half deep.  As a result of that it spread our redfish out over a larger area and we couldn't find our larger fish.  We got on them with out any problems.  In fact we had our two weigh in fish in less than 20 cast - tried culling for bigger all day... as the day progressed we tried different areas only to find lots of people out and about...

As a result of traveling we ran out of gas in one tank and switch over to another.  After running about one quarter of a mile we went dead in the water...

We couldn't get it started again... tried just about everything... we eventually got towed in... Thanks to David who called Sam... thanks to Sam who called Ian... thanks Ian for coming to get us...
Problem turned out to be the water separater...
Didn't make weigh in  - had close to 13 lbs.
