My first trip ever to SH Reef was in 2001 with my Father on hot August day. We lost a lot of rigs, but totally forgot about that when I landed a 8.5 lb fluke on a live snapper.

12.13lbs. Live snapper. 1st in community tourney about 14 or 15 years ago. I think we had 47+ lbs total of five fish. My buddy dropped one at the side of the boat right after that. Had mine beat! Live snapper too.

PB are nice; even better if on the "right" day! ...but u "no" the old saying, even a blind squirrel finds a nut once in awhile.
consistently catching quality-size fish is the key. they move, conditions change and how they're chewing vary and the fisherman must adapt. that all said and admitting that while i enjoy the run of a striper.............the HEAD SHAKE of a fluke and knowing that if you don't do everything right or she gets off (coupled with the warmth of fishing in shorts) makes this my favorite specie to fish for. they aint bad eating either |
