Monday Fishing Report
07.29.08
My friend and I were thinking of trying out some dock fishing from the kayak at night but wound up just going out on his boat in the afternoon. And I’m glad we did. We headed out with some pinfish that I put in his bait hotel the day before and were just scouting around. On our way in we decided to hit a spot that I got a monster hit on a few weeks back. It was right at low tide and we could see way back into the hole. As we got up close I heard my friend who was on the tower saying, “Do you see that???” I thought it was a cobia cause it was big and looked redish. I cast into the hole..nothing. Reeled it in and made a better cast and BAM! He took it…fast! That’s when I knew it was a big snook, just like I had mentioned on the way there. I was able to pull him out of the hole before he look off behind the pylons like last time. My friend was rushing down off the tower as I as yelling to get net ready. He made about 3 really nice jumps. Then we got him to the boat. Man, that’s my biggest snook yet coming in at 28 inches! What a fight. I definitely have a new favorite fish.
