I caught this Bull
Redfish this past weekend down at the coast. Didn't get a chance
to weigh & measure accurately but from the rough measurement
he was a little over 48 inches long and really heavy. I got him
to pose with me and then I let him go so he could terrorize some
other fisherman. We also caught a nice 5 foot blacktip shark. We
had another big shark hooked up but he Cancun'ed us, or in other
words he took off for Cancun and never turned around. We watched
as the reel was screaming towards the moment when it would run out
of line and started cranking the drag down harder and harder till
finally the 80 pound test line snapped and off he went to Cancun.
Lesson learned we need stronger line. Curtis Mai, San Antonio
