Caught fishing from the beach earlier this week:
-4 Redfish-41,39,33,28"s
-various other fish, sharks, whiting
and
-lost two mystery fish. Each stripped two hundred yards of line against a braked reel then broke off at the hook. Probably a large shark or ray.
-bait cut mullet on Carolina rigs.
It pays to buy good tackle.
My fishing buddy has a penchant for saving money; so he bought a $15 dollar rod and a $10 reel.
The handle broke off the reel while catching the 39’er.
The angler had the presence of mind to lock the reel and walk backwards on the beach until he landed the fish-pretty quick thinking.
