Didn't fish Sabine this weekend. We went to Galveston island state park and Slitterbon instead.
the green water was about 100yds. Off the beach with lots of mullet. I managed one whiting on a chrt. clouser and had to break off a large sting ray. It made 2 runs then sucked to the bottom. The 9wt and 15# tippet wouldn't budge it. Got a real thrill while in the kayak. My son and I were paddling near a large school of mullet when to our surprise a 4 foot shark busted through the school slapping its tail violently. My son,"8yrs old" said,"I'm ready to go back to the beach now daddy!" but we stayed a few minutes more in hopes of seeing it breach the surface again but it didn't happen.
Tight lines,
