I hope that the grassies in Houston don't mind eating that microjig, since I will have a couple with me. Dave do you think that the spotted gar would eat that as well? I have a couple of target spots for them as well.

The Houston Grassies haven't been introduced to the chartreuse microjig yet.... they oughta fall all over themselves trying to be the first to taste this candy! :)

When are you going?  The St Louis grassies seem to stop showing up to play around mid-October.  Houston should see them active for at least a few weeks longer, I'd guess.

Yes, Spotted Gar will eat microjigs.  They quickly lose interest in an artificial that stops... so keep you lure moving and looking alive.  I'm pretty sure both Spotted Gars I caught in Louisiana last year ate microjigs.

I should be fishing by the 18th of Sept. A day and a half in fresh and about the same in saltwater.

Might be some redfish caught too.

Was out chasing Whites and Wipers at Clinton last evening, came across this BAD A## shad, tried to eat this Baby Fat :).  Evening Top water bite has been good, Bio Masses of Shad

Would be happy with redfish, gafftopsail catfish, southern or gulf flounder along with a couple of micros, e.g., longnose killifish, diamond killifish, flagfin mojarra, clown goby, etc....😁

Congratulations Dave! Lots of sweat equity in those catches!
