November 1, 2015 Report

Christine and Chico are local anglers and a couple of months bank Christine had booked a six hour trip for Chico's birthday that we had to reschedule due to weather. Today however was a different day with gorgeous weather. We started off snook fishing and although they were some snook scattered about feeding we could not get one to eat so we moved on to a shipwreck. Arriving at the shipwreck there were tons of fish, mainly big blue runners that kept harassing Chico while Christine lost a nice mutton snapper and landed another one. We tried a couple of other spots and ended up shark fishing on the flats. The response was immediate and we hooked a nice big shark within a few minutes but lost it immediately. Many more sharks came in but refused to eat. Weird! We ended the day at another wreck where immediately I saw a big Barracuda follow one of the fish we had hooked. Using one of the caught fish as bait I tossed it behind the boat and let it sit there. Within a few minutes the rod doubled over, the real started to scream and a big Barracuda took to the air quite a distance away. After a long blistering fight Chico landed a big Barracuda to end the day and celebrate his birthday finally! Happy birthday Chico!
