I ran out boynton inlet on thursday evening around 6:00. 30min. later I was on the boca humps Iput uot just 2 lines because I was by my self. On the first drift I started outside in 1250'and drifted for 30mins with no hits.

So I ran in to 900' and lined up to drift over the humps 10mins inthe first hit it slashed the bait 3 times I hooked it on thr next hit. This was a big fish 200+ it got 200yds. of power pro line before I stopped it. It came straight up and started jumping and flipped the hook.

I made 3 more passes on thr same line and had as many fish on only to lose them the sae way. I needed another pair of hands all these fish where too big and fast for me to get to the. helm to get the boat moving. In the warmer waters these fish have a lot of power and speed.

Sorry no pictures I got no fish.
