Texas Reds - Paperback

by Chester Jr. Moore (Author)

Chester Moore has re-written his classic redfish volume for this updated edition. Here's what he has to say about this book, and its subject: "Long before the speckled trout was the most popular species on the Gulf Coast, redfish were the big prize. In my region, trout were mainly by-catch for anglers seeking reds How times have changed. Now, some diehard speckled trout anglers give redfish disparaging nicknames like 'golden croaker on steroids, ' 'crab carp, ' and 'fool's gold.' I personally want to puke when I hear anglers disrespecting redfish; to me, those comments are trampling on the traditions of many great anglers."
