    Fishbuster Charters' Captain Dave Hanson reported, "Mike Connealy, who had fished inshore with me the previous week, brought along his brother, Paul, for an offshore trip on Thursday morning, 11/16. Winds had been howling for a couple of days, and we anticipated that the two-to-three foot seas NOAA had predicted for offshore were likely under-estimated. But the tide was low and outgoing in the bay, so the guys decided to stick with their offshore plans. It was pretty sloppy out fifteen miles, but Mike and Paul used cut-bait and squid for a mixture of sport and food fish. They released four blacknose sharks measuring 24 inches, 30 inches, 38 inches and 48 inches, along with six red grouper shorts to 17 inches. They boxed a dozen keeper lane snapper, all of which were around 11 inches, along with some grunts and a 20-inch Spanish mackerel."

    1.) Angler Larry Jones with an 16-inch lane snapper, caught on squid 19 miles west of New Pass on a recent offshore Fishbuster Charter.



    2.) Angler Tom Krum with a 20-inch trout, caught on shrimp in Estero Bay on a recent inshore Fishbuster Charter.
