If you lost a hook with a fish attached......I found your hook, the fish is mine :D Note the tip breaking down, probably 1-2 days ago.

Launched around 5 AM. Hit the pier, saw bait before I got there and picked up a couple dines and some greenbacks. Nelz pulled up, made bait and was off ahead of me. Saw him stop and grab the long rod before rounding the outside buoy. He said there were a dozen fish on the surface that sunk out. Perfect morning for sight fishing with next to no wind. I made my way north of the hotel. Saw a spot of puddlers around 6:30, looked like rats, threw the iron and got picked up and popped off. Stuck around waiting for more, sardine on the short line goes a-screamin. Pick it up and it is gone. Now the big greenback is going smooth and steady. Fish on! This guy knew how to keep his head down and kept wanting the bottom. Finally wore him out :D Saw some more nice spots of puddlers, seemed to hang around the grass patches and there was alot of grass out there. Had some big swinging tails chasing the iron, but none grabbing it. 6:30-7:30 was really lively between the hotel and the point. Hit the beach at 9AM, had to come home for a shower after this bleeder. :D
