I hooked a porpise last year on a pinfish. Fought it and even made eye contact with it when it jumped. It finally broke off the leader at the hook.

I've been using power pro on all my reels for a couple years now. Lately fishing in all this east wind I've been plagued with wind knots. I understand why I get these knots for the most part, but has anyone noticed other brands of braid that are less prone to this? Man, it can get obnoxious. :smt011

Er...., Basstired, I've had some pretty good luck wading the bars at bald point. Fishing the beach just west around the corner will usually get you some reds and flounder as well.
