Florida fishin report
While its blowin a gale up there its beutiful down in ponce inlet (Daytona). Went out with a new friend for my first redfish trip. It's just like live lining for stripers
 Hit the inlet early and with a few throws of the net made our bait for the day (mullet). Headed out to the tip of the jetty of ponce inlet and set up shop. Took a little while but I busted my redfish cherry with a fish at the upper end of the slot size. Also caught a bonnet head shark and a monster drag screaming run off which ended up being a nice tarpon. The tarpon launched itself out of the water and cut the 30 floro. A hot fun day on the water. The red run is on right now. Will hit it again real soon.

Re: Florida fishin report
Nice red!
Those tarpon (silver kings!) are some powerful gamefish - really test your tackle. Hooked and lost a bunch down in the Keys before I finally landed my first one. Was out in an inflatable kayak fishing a pass between keys when it hit. Fish was strong enough to drag me (with anchor out!) under a bridge, clearing the water several times till it tired out. Found out afterwards there is a resident hammerhead that occasionally patrols the area and steals hooked tarpon. So glad he wasn't around that day!  Way to catch 'em up!

Re: Florida fishin report
Good to see you have found your way around the southern waters Steve.
Nothing like sunshine every day. Find a few of the sheepshead sharpies and hook up with them, that is your Florida blackfish. JOEY and I are currently playing our annual tuna weather game. Typical fall blow outs.
