Nice fish! :thumbup:

About the only thing I miss from S Fla is being able to go 7-10 miles out and target Dolphin. Congrats

St. Marks 4/25

Was looking for a good excuse to buy a new rod and reel combo and said to myself, " I know, I'll tell the wife it's for HER, she won't get mad if I buy one for HER!" Bought it Thursday and it worked like a charm, she was thrilled. :D SOOO...take the family out yesterday, (Sat.) on the flat...
