I could not find any Sharks but this 36Lb King Mackrel was close in my book.
Sorry if we have been slow this week while I was on the beach.
Thanks to Sean & Laura - Especially Laura as she has had to deal with all the panics and me - and as everyone who knows me already knows I am a PITA.

Nice catch Roger! Are you sure you hooked that monster or did you trip on it at the dock

Congrats!

I caught it and man it took some landing. Fishing live bait on light tackle. Small spinning rod. Every time I got it within 50 Ft of the boat it would do a 100yd dash stripping line of the reel.
We lost a number of similar sized fish to Barracudas - I dread to think how big they were.

Now I know why you didn't come by

Glad you enjoyed Destin, sorry I missed you again this year!

Maybe we will finally meet this year in TX.

I truly hope you enjoyed your vacation, most small business owners have a hard time not thinking about other things, like what is going on back at the business.
I just wanted to say that Sean was very helpful to me when I called with a question.








(me, I am thinking about where are the hookers and blow on vacation, but that is just me.)
