Fish on!! Brian hooked up in the early morning on a good fish... battle time was an estimate 40 minutes on from the top of my truck.

Here's a 8' 1" Tiger shark that brought to surface by my son's 12/0...it was taken on a fresh jack fish...the shark was released.

Here's me with a 24" Red Snapper at the rigs, taken on fresh mullet.

Here is Brian with a Red Snapper in the 14' Zodiac at the rig. The fish was taken on light tackle with #15 line on a Fenwick rod with a 6500 Ambassadeur... later that day he caught a bigger Snapper and broke the rod in half.

Here's a Kingfish caught offshore on Big Shell off ribbon fish.

Here's me holding a 26" Red Snapper at the rigs in the 14' Zodiac and my buddy Dan trying to catch a bigger one...

Brian and I caught a limit of Red Snapper offshore near Big Shell.

On the 8-06-05 two guys drove up and reported seeing a large Hammerhead Shark down south. Later that night around 5am in the morning, one of the12/0's was spooled in 15 minutes. Needed a bigger reel!
