Was working an event there, got up early and leaked on the sand to watch the sunrise and it was the craziest mix of purple, pink and orange!
Florida has some great sunrises, but I do miss California's awesome winter month sunsets.

Might be an option if I can't catch anything else!
I have taken a few Barracuda on the lizardfish, and a thin hook up through the nose from the upper half of the jaw is how I hooked on the baits.
