Couple nights later the first pic is a mid 30 lb fish caught on a really cool plug. It is an over a foot long needle made by a gentleman from Conn. that I got in a trade. Gigantic is the only way to explain it. Was really fun using that plug and the fact it floats allowed me to fish it real slow with a lot of pauses like few nights before. Fight was great but the fish put the siwash thru my finger landing it, lucky I crush the barbs. The next fish was the best of the few nights. I wandered away from the few guys I was fishing with that night and again the med white danny just twitched on the surface and reeled extremely slow was the ticket again. The fight was one of the best I have had in years with tons of drag being taken on several great runs but being only sand in front of me there was no anxiety of losing the fish on rocks or structure. Very enjoyable. All the above fish were revived and swam away. I do sell fish but it was quite rewarding letting these fish go.

Nice Vacation you had there PM.

Was that sytle of retrieve with the medium white Danny something new that you have been trying recently or just what they seemed to want that night......and how many other sytle retrieves did you try that night before finding the one that worked?
