Thanks Rich,

I forgot to add any info...it was the 4th of July afterall...

Water was warm, and blue to somewhat aqua on Monday night, thought about diving Tuesday instead. But launched in the morning at 4:45AM, fish was caught around 8:45am in 78 ft of water, westside of Hotel, off a f/l spanish mackerel, 4/0 ringed Owner gorilla hook, #20 fluoro, to #50 spectra. I had all but given up, when ZZZZZZZ...ZZZ.ZZZZZ.....ZZZ The YT didn't smoke my clicker, so I thought it was another Calico.

Incidentally, I caught a personal best Calico in the same manner, near horseshoe (released) I think about 6lbs, pic doesn't do it justice, thanks Ken nonetheless.
