If anybody tells your there are more exciting fish in the bay to catch than a 5, 6 or 7 pound spanish on 8lb. test they are mistaken. There isn't a redfish out there that will stretch a line better than a spanish of the same size. Of course, along with the spanish, we hook blacktip sharks, blues, ladies, banded rudderfish and many other species. The last few days we have been destoying the spanish catching many in the five pound plus size. This will continue throughout the summer. We haven't landed that first shark yet but that should be just around the corner. Fifty pound sharks have the advantage when fishing with 8 and 10 pound test. Here are some pictures from the last few days. {%image_id=4974%} {%image_id=4975%} {%image_id=4976%} {%image_id=4977%} {%image_id=4973%} {%image_id=4971%} Some days we hit the trout first and then go after the reds. Some of my trout spots are hot just now, wish I could get pictures of the ones that get away. {%image_id=4972%} Haven't spent much time looking for reds lately but they are pretty easy to find if you want to go catch a few.
