Indian Rocks Sandbar

We rolled out there a little after sundown. Met up with Steve who was really just sitting there waiting lol. I paddled out our three big mullet. The first rod to be hit was Melissa's Trinadad. She gets a screaming run and meets a crab trap. Bummed, we all sit back down. Then my 12/0 starts a slow run toward Mexico. So I stick it and take my seat :lol: Then Steve decides I needed help :lol: I decided it was his turn, this would be his first shark so i told him to take it. Not bad for Crab traps everywhere! Not bad for Steve's first. :D

LOL, Thanks. Damn thing doesnt feel small, I think the rod is better suited for a 14/0 or 16/0, its VERY heavy :lol: A bit Heavy for me. I usually prefer my International 30TW but all the traps forced out the big guns :lol: 200lb Toughline works wonders! :D

You gotta move those crab traps out of your way one day and keep hitting that beach, a think a big shark is due for that area. That sandbar looked big... and is your leader straight weedwhacker or is that coated steel?

Just an average fisherman.

Went again tnight. The weather report lied. had a steady crosswind that blew my canoe all over the place made it hard on me just to get a bait out. And when I did my 4.5oz spider wouldnt stay put :( so I added a 6oz pyramid and still had a huge bow in the line. Was rough, kept taking waves over the bow on the way out and getting sideswiped and almost rolling on the way in. was a total bust. But.... As we all know, it happens.
