Santa Rosa Sound 7/22/10

I took the kayak out late last night and let a slow current carry me along the main channel of the ICW slightly west of Hurlburt. I caught several hardheads, 2 large sailcats, a ray, and then nothing for a while until I checked a rod and it went limp. The line then started moving under the boat and was caught up in my pedal drive fins. I pulled the fins up, freed the line, and fought a 38 inch redfish for what seemed like a long time. Here's a picture of my yak and the fish. I had to measure him in the water, as I wasn't about to bring him in the kayak and let him beat me up.
