I managed to wet the line a little this weekend.....

Friday night, I was into trophy mung on just about every cast on the outer beaches. It was sweet.

Saturday morning, went out in the boat. It was a little too snotty to do the run we intended, so we decided to go for some fluke instead. Thirty seconds into the first drift, I hook into something big, and my drag starts singing. A couple minutes later, I've got the biggest damn fluke any of us had ever seen to the surface. I could not believe it was even a fluke. Of course, as my buddy goes to net it, it thrashes, and back down it goes without my hook in its mouth. We ended up getting close to our limit with the biggest (landed) going about five pounds on the Boga, but the one I dropped was AT LEAST double the size as that one. We estimated the fluke to be 12+, and let me say that I am now on a mission. Stripers are #2 in my book for the moment.
