0.000 HBDLeft work early and caught a BIG Papio - One and done!
 I went in super early for work and thus I got to leave at 2PM. I had my gear in the car and I headed to the beach. I went to the West side of the Island and the surf was down. FINALLY. I started whipping walking the shore. I started from the car, and moved north for an hour. Only small stuff hit and I threw them all back. I started to walk back to the car then after about 15 minutes I had a screamer. I knew it was a Papio based on the way it fought. It went side to side and I was so worried my line would cut. I was using 12 pound main and 8 pound leader. I was glad I used a heavier leader than normal. After a few minutes the fish moved to a deeper pocket of water that was closer to shore. The fish was trying to cut me off on the rocks but it made a mistake and hit an area that was a sandy channel. I was able to pick up a lot of line and the fish started to tire. I tried to keep the fish in the sandy area and guided it to the beach. NO ROCKS. I was so lucky. The fish was dead tired when I got it to the sand. I grabbed it and put it in the cooler. It didn't even fit. I have no idea how big it is as my scale broke, but it was the biggest one I have caught in a long time. Time to stop writing and time to clean fish.
