"fleet of 2 kayakers and 5 Hobies" haha! Still hating I see...

Post some more when you can, looks like better fishing than what we have up here right now.

While everyone headed back to the ramp, I decided to take a road less traveled and hit one more spot on the other side of the island. That spot was on fire and managed to land 7 YT and 2 skipjack in a little over an hour, including this nice 45 incher.Attachment 17542

Despite the predicted high winds and swell, Sven, Kevin, Richard and I hit the water early on Black Friday. Turned out to be a decent day with lots of action on Yellowtail, sierra and bass. I managed to catch a gorgeous 27 lb Leopard grouper. Sorry for the dirty camera lens. I had not caught a grouper here in Asuncion since I got here and this week we got two. Richard landed a nice 35 pound Yellowtail.

Gulf grouper. Nice one. I'm envious. Bet it ate well.

Actually, that's a broomtail grouper. Nice one! Looks like an amazing fishery.

It could be. But I cant believe confusing a broom w a leopard. And w/o a tail shot we cant tell.
