We went this afternoon. Water was really clear but it was really slow. I finally got a red to hit a bomber! Pretty cool to see! To bad I set the hook like a sissy and he didn't stay on long. In the mean time I got to see the porpoises! Cool critters and one of em came within about 30 ft of me! Don't forget some sea turtles!

Anyway, Paul caught a beautiful spec that must have weighed like 200 lbs or somethin! Ok, maybe a couple. Lol

as he's takin his to the bank, boom, fish on! Headed for the rocks but got him away from em just to lose him 50' later! Dangit! I slammed that hook with tight drag and it was still pullin drag! Oh well.

Not a huge success story but, a great day out! Everything I got to see today looked way better than anything I would have seen behind a welding hood, for sure!

A HUGE thanks to Mr. Paul for taking me out today! Hopefully, we can get after it again before I leave.
