went out the other night with Luis and his son chiqui too do some fishing and when we met up at the spot there was so much grass we couldent even fish so we decided to check another spot and to are surprise it had barely any grass. we met up around 7:30 and dident even get baits out until close to 10:00 what a mission it is some time but its what we love and are very passionate about. soo we have 4 baits in the water and within 2 hours or so both my baits were wiped out one due too something small messing with the bait and my other bait got cutoff and I lost a lot off line. so I rig up and yak out my third bait for the night. about 45 minutes go by and my 80 gets picked up solid, free spooled it then I hit the running man. I knew it was a nice fish and then after it started pulling me back to the beach and I sat down I really knew it was a big fish. sure enough I forgot my harness this trip and I was in for a heck of a battle. THANKS FOR ALL YOUR HELP BROTHER! I couldn't have done it without you and chiqui!
great looking shark there. congrats

The Hammer was 11'2. JD. Congrats again bro. You did a great job on that Hammer. Not many people go fishing in thunderstorms. We thought they would pass but they did not pass as quickly as we thought. We showed up at one beach and it was nasty grass all over. Most people would go home. Not us. And it was still raining. We drove to another beach and put our baits out and we were rewarded with a Big Hammer. Congrats. You da man!
Great Shark! Looks like she had some bites on her side.
Nice hammer!
