Sniperpeeps and I got an early start today. Bait was super easy and mostly turbo cigs too which was a nice bonus. We would have been done with bait in no time but I looked down and see my bait tube open and cigs swimming out. 
Oh well, it was easy enough to get a quick couple dozen more and head out.
We saw some birds including pelicans working which is always a good sign so we head on over. Turns out they were on a big school of threadfin but nothing really busting on them. I did pick up a decent king on them though. Then off to bottom bump awhile.
Just before we get to the spot I pick up another king.
Right off the bat we are getting hammered bottom fishing. Sniperpeeps was the ARS killer today with seven fish about this size and a few smaller fish. Meanwhile I was getting rocked and I just knew they were grouper.
I drop down and get rocked again but this time after free spooling him a few minutes he comes up, a twenty four inch gag, whoo hoo a keeper. After a few more snapper and rockings we head on out to meet up with YaknTat. We bottom fish with him awhile with nothing but snapper but I do get rocked twice.
We had to call it early and nothing but a stupid shark on the troll in but a grouper in the cooler, beautiful weather and calm water equals out to another stellar day in paradise. :thumbsup:
Oh yeah, to the guy that helped me out on the beach with my yak today, PM me, my offer is good.
