"We caught these two beauty's on the First Annual Surf Masters Surfside Drum Run (1/11/03).  It was a blast.  Met allot of new hardcore fishermen.  Did not get a length or weight on these two redfish because we were in a hurry to release them.  I'm on the left an my son Anthony is on the right.  Both redfish were caught on cut crabs."

 


 

First Kingfish of the year, caught it Friday May 7th 2004. It hit a bumper shad on a tarpon float, off the back corner of the T on the end of Bob Hall pier. It went 48 inches . My brother Roger also caught a 50 inch king and a 40 lb. Jack that day. It rained off and on but that only made the fishing better lol.
