Sweet, we got into the kings and spanish on top one time, and the casualty rate for the tackle was very high. Them big reds are hell on top-water rods.

Hey Mamba I hope you did well with the baits, let me know what colors worked. As far as spinning, with the 20 MPH winds I didn't want to pull out birds nest all day like someone that was cursing on the boat lol. Like I told you I can do anything with spinning that someone can do with bait. Pox caught a fish on a bait caster then I caught a bigger one lol. Pox broke a rod on a fish then I broke one on a fish. I didn't want him to feel bad lol. It was a great day and i left about 5 red fish with lip jewelry for them to remember me.

*****!!! when i was watchin the video i noticed that as well!!!

[Waterbowl]

Don't be bustin on Johnny Knots about his shakiness. We had a good day with some spectacular situations. Heck we had to release as many fish as we caught due to size. It was a good time and if the dang weather man could learn what 25 mile an hour wind is then the day would have been better.
