Ok here it is, went sharking and snapper fishing but not much but for me and my son, but a lot for mikeypbg....Friday afternoon Brad got 3 runs on bonnet head as bait one of them a gummy so he cut it off. He wasn't lucky enough to get his shark on the new 14/0 and extreme rod combo. I got a hit on a 20 inch bonnet head but the shark let go of it. crabman got his biggest bonnet head and lost a mack truck of a cero mackerel. I lost a couple of mack trucks too due to cutoffs but landed one of about 3 to 4 pounds. mikeypbg lost a couple too but landed a very nice 6 to 7 pound cero, his first, way to go Mike! We also got a couple of mangrove keepers.

In the way back we stopped at the first bridge with fishing platforms on it, only 8 platforms on it, 4 on each side. 8 on each side would have been nicer but less room.

Here are some pics:

Mack and bonnet

Platforms:

That's all folks.

Yep, we had a good time. That Cero was delicious and it fed 5 people! Ill have pictures later on tonight. I still dont really know how to post them so I need Brad's help.

Herbert,
I didnt realize how big that bonnet head was. Good job Crabman.

No points on the board but a good time had by all.
