Another nice day out there, 1-2 ft and light wind from the north. Live bait was everywhere you looked from abot 9 miles out. Some really large ones to boot. After baiting up ,NM was our destination. We fished 3-4 places with limited sucess,1 snapper and a seabass. It was time to rebait and in the process a cobia made his entrance and stirred up the crew. We tried everthing in the arsenal but all he did was tease us! Then finally, we force fed him a lively sardine  and our host John was hooked up. After a 30-35 minute tug of war John won and the Cobia made the fishbox.

From the cobia war, we headed south and 2 more spots. The sharks started to show up and interfere with our efforts. The bottom fish didn't want to bite with them in the area. We did manage 2 grouper and 1 snap. John waited for an hour for that BIG BITE and finally got it at the last minute. That big grouper busted him and left JOHN a very anxious man.

JOHN we will get next time!  TIGHT LINES!!
