Well, my son was late getting off work so we never hit the pier until midnight Friday, fished until after 6:00, grabbed a few hours nap at the hotel and was back at it about 11:30 Saturday. Caught a bunch of undersized snapper, a small trout, a file fish, a bunch of pinfish, what I think may have been small searobins(ugly little fish with fins and almost looked like small legs in front of the fins). No real hits until shortly before we left. I had walked back to the truck to get a drink, came back and saw line just going out on the pinfish that had been soaking for about 3 hours. Grabbed the rod to tighten the drag, it was on the incoming tide and the fish was already under the pier. Just as I started to tighten the drag, there was a huge surge and he dragged the braid across the concrete. Oh well, whatever it was, it was big! We can't wait to come back and give it another go!
