Made greenies just outside the reserve and started by yoyoing the iron on bait balls to no luck. Moved out a little further and seadog was stealing my baits. Moved even further out from the Condo in 86 feet dropped a carolina rigged greenie to the bottom and got picked up immediately. I held on for dear life as this bad boy had lots of strength and energy. Took about 15 minutes of serious praying that it wouldn't come unbottoned, and finally it just came to poppa!

Ratdog! You dog!!
Nice fish woo! How heavy a slider do you use on the carolina rig to get the greenie down that far? |

Nice job! Cool Beach Shot, reminds me of the painting "American Gothic."
