Default Bull Red from Palafox Pier

Hi guys, I'm a new poster but have been frequenting the forum for quite a while.



Well yesterday I went down to the pier and caught a fairly nice Bull Red.



Mostly people were catching white trout. I was just floating a cig out at the end. Then my rod bend and reel exploded. You all know the feeling. Well after 30 mins I pulled it up took a few pics. We measured it, and it came in at 39 inches long and 22 inches in girth.



I released it back for someone else to catch. It was amazing feeling as that creature swim back into the darkness.







Tight lines!
