Hit the closest put-in near my house tonight. Caught a small mangrove snapper and then a lady fish.
I hooked the lady in rear and chunked her out......after about 20 mins the reel goes berserk....zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz right at a dock I was sitting near. I engaged the reel and held on. I had about 3 seconds of rod doubled over drag pulling heavy fish, then nothing! The hook had foul hooked back into the bait with no chance of hooking the fish.

Big Snook. They love Ladyfish of that size.

Tried again tonight.... almost scored a trash can slam. 1 catfish, 1 puffer, and a jack stole my bait and then ate my florescent pink bobber.

LOL... No Joy! But I do hear a jumbo sized pin fish is a good bait for flop fish.
