GREAT day on the water with Sharkman who now lives in Tampa but was back in our neck of the woods this past weekend.

Will let the video do most of the talking. Only shared video of one spanish fight but guessing we caught between 20 and 30. Also saw multiple turtles and jumping rays but shared only the best individual clips.

Only other thing worth adding is that we had multiple fish regurgitating scaled sardines as we wound them in. Just to give an idea HOW MUCH they were feeding, one of the cobia we kept spit up clouds of sardines FOUR TIMES as I fought him. When I cleaned him, his stomach still was almost entirely filled with the pictured contents. Fun catching them when they're feeding that aggressively!
