Sorry for the brief report, but I've got a lot going on right now.
Had a small window to fish with my dad last night so we made the most of it.
Great conditions other than the low tide.  Lots of critters out.  One big knock down that gave my dad a new PB leopard.
57" male on a mac chunk.


One funny thing is before sunset, my rod got slammed and my adreneline started pumping as I ran to the rod.
Turned out to be a big sand piper flew into my line and got it wrapped around it's wing. 
Gently pulled it in and got it untangle and it flew off fine  :o

Chad I'm glad you realized that fish don't have feathers.   :D ;D Dominick
Leave the gun.  Take the cannolis.

There are two things I don't like about fishing.  Getting up early in the morning and boats.  The rest of it is fun.

LOL, I was hoping for something more toothy, but it was cool to hold the bird and check it out up close!

Leopard sharks, but hey in a pinch a sandpiper would do!
