[QUOTE="Canonman, post: 2121765, member: 4400"] Neal and I took off for Grayton Beach over our fall break. I posted some updates already but here is the full story, pics, and later Ill add the amazing footage! Day one we started out catching mullet in the bay which proved harder than expect and then hit the beach. Fishing about a mile offshore we dragged baits for awhile producing a nice pair of kings. We missed five more bites including one big king that launched itself ten feet in the air when he hit my bait. [img]http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y126/Canonman87/1.jpg[/img] The afternoon produced nothing more than a remora...this turned out the be the the case for every afternoon. Afternoon totals for three days included a remora and one blue fish. Day two we hit the beach early as we had bait already to go from the day before. The morning was pretty good in a few hours of fishing we produced another king and even a cobia. Neal hooked the cobia and as I was taking pictures I noticed a second cobia swiming along side Neals, but wasn't interested in the bait. [img]http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y126/Canonman87/Cobia.jpg[/img] Day Three Drew showed up to test out the coosa on open water. I was pretty set on the idea that he would be trailing behind a bit, but the coosa handled the ocean well! We went throw the pass and braved some huge swells and the coosa did amazing and Drew could even stand in pretty rough water. The speed of the coosa was impressive too yes it was slower than the 140 and 120 but not by much. This morning turned out to be the best yet as we produced two kings one being 25lbs, three spanish, two cats, and drew even caught a squid.
