what's up matt? the heat is brutal but im starting to get acclimated. consistently in the low 90s and humid. but i deal with it..

so this morning i landed my first good sized cuda. the thing was probably 4 ft. long. man what a fight. the circle hook landed right in the corner of its mouth so it couldn't bite the leader. unfortunately i didn't get a pic because i was by myself and was trying to get the thing up over the bridge. i had gloves on and wrapped the braid around my hands and hoisted it up. not a pleasant experience. tmrw i will be investing in some sort of bridge net to lower down to the fish. as a side a guy down the bridge from me hooked into a big fish that spooled him. i would have thought it was a shark but the guy was convinced it was a goliath grouper. who knows. lots of cool fish swimming around these waters.

i'm going back in the morning to try for tarpon. hopefully i'll land one and get some pics!
