Whiting - limits ?

Can't find anything on the TWPD on restrictions for whiting? Are there any length/qty limits for them?

thanks guys.

They are not subject to specific limits. Only the fish listed in the table on the regulations page are subject to limits. http://www.tpwd.state.tx.us/regulati...r_limits.phtml

They are small, but tasty. I ran some fillets through the fryer last weekend. Good food.

Why thank you sir. Taking the kids to Galveston State Park this weekend, figured we throw some gulp strips / dead shrimp, in the first gut and try our luck.

The limit is the number that will fit in your cooler.

The limit is the amount you are willing to clean.

Losing fish is part of catching fish.

I'm a big fan of gulp strips but they don't catch many fish this time of year when the water is cold. Use dead shrimp for whiting until the water warms up.

Whiting are fun to catch with a small to medium pole, I use dead shrimp or squid. Shrimp the best thing to do is peel them as whiting dont tend to like the shell and drum will typically take de shelled shrimp also. I normally like to use a small circle hook like a size 3-4 with a small piece and they hook up pretty easily that way.
