Baytown Couple Lands Huge Drum at Cedar Bayou Pier
A Baytown couple using strong tackle and a stout glass rod landed two large drums off Thompson's Pier at Cedar Bayou. Tommy Teets fought the 31 pound monster on a heavy line while wife Mrs Teets hauled in a 26 pound fish on the same rig. Volunteers aided the catch as the gear faced barnacle hazards along the pier.
