Scott M.
006Scott is from Wisconsin. We met up at Capt. Hiram’s in the morning. The weather was perfect, no wind and plenty of sun. The tide was the end of outgoing. It was changing to incoming around 10 a.m. We caught some croakers and noticed some Tarpon rolling. We trolled a few baits and had one hit where we never saw the fish. Next one was a big Jack 23lbs. Scott had some fun with that horse. Next hit after that was a big Tarpon. It took off running and jumping after Scott hooked it. That was that.

We also fished for the Cobia and did pretty good. Well Scott did great. First fish was 24lbs. I thought it was bigger than that. He hooked and landed the next fish and it was just a bit smaller. We were getting some action. Scott also landed a good size Bonita. We were getting ready to leave and Scott caught another Cobia that was of keeper size. Storms were approaching and it was time to run in. Scott is was a lot of fun and a pleasure to fish with you. Hope to fish with you again next time your in town. Best wishes and fast recovery to your family.
