Forget the swordies!! It's time to kill a snook!

Nick C · 09-16-2007, 09:40 PM

Ole coop dog and I decided to give the swordies a break and kill a couple snook tonight in my flats boat. Netted a bunch of finger mullets and hit up some dock and bridges around. Took a while to find some fish, but we found em. First bait by little bridge back in Ocean Ridge produced a 20-25lb Tarpon for me. Then came the fish of the night. Cooper's mullet get drilled by something nice. Fights the fish out of the bridge and to the boat. I about shat myself when I the saw the teef of this 8-9lb Cubera!!!!! Neat looking fish! Worked the area a little longer loosing 3 snook. Two of which looked to be right at 29-30"

Think Cooper has some pics of da snappa

Hey Nick nice fish! I went out that same night and we went 1/2 on 20lb tarpon, and also lost some snook. Last September I caught a cubera fishing out of Boca doing the same thing. Whatta surprise! I hear you guys have been killing the swordies. I havent been after them since the jurassic drift and I'm jonesing to go soon. Anyway catch em up!
