Tough way to end the day...
Outgunned by a HUGE snook - I've managed to get a 30" to the boat without too many headaches, I can say this snook bested that one by easily +12".

I now have my Mody Dick. " A hump like a snow hill. Now where's me gold spoon?? With Davey Jones. Arrrrrr...."

The one that gets away is always larger than the one you caught. :wink:

Absolutely - by year's end it'll be 52".

That said this was one of those gals that I've seen over there but never hooked into. Totally thrilling, but I'm not sure I could have gotten her in. I'm guessing we were only 1/3 of the way into the fight and that line was shot. It was 20lb fluorocarbon.
