After spending 3 1/2 hrs. in the dentist chair, I headed out to SSP to make me feel better. Got there around Noon. Set up shop in the "Alley", got some bait, started to freeline some pins. Not much to talk about. Three shorts, several rock-ups. Around 2:30, the Brownie Troupe leader shows up without her troupe. SkyJay, Trucky and others, you know this particular beast. Since she was alone, I knew she was eating. Anyway, after chasing her down to the restroom and back past the "Alley" and back again, she finally eats a pin. FISH ON!!! By that time I was sooo pumped, my fishing brain shuts down and my stomach kicks in. All I could think about was steaking her up and getting her on the grill. Shame on me. It was over in about a minute, hook pulled. SH**!!! She headed out to open water and outa here. This girl is a BEAST. Easy 60-70 lb'er. I was so pisssed I started cussin', jumpin up and down, threw my rod, and almost cried. Oh well, SH** happens. I left for the day to go home and have a Beer or three. See ya all in the "Alley" on Sunday. Time to make Ravioli, should have been Cobia. Damn.

dive2seefish dont worry you will get your fish. All good fisherman has got to have some of the big ones get away and tthose cobia are more than willing to be the ones. I had more than my share at pier 60 get my heat pumping lie crazy just so they can find a way to get off. My wife had 1 that somehow broke the reel seat on the rod she was using. I was going crazy and her not reallying being a fiaher person was just standing there flat footed while i was shouting direction to her on how to land it. Well after the reel seat broke all bets were off and i had to chill for about 30mins before i could get back to fishing again.

I guess that's going into the private stock. And poor public is left to pick through your 2 day old grunts and sand trout, sigh. What do I have to do? Place the order in advance.
