i was fishing in the sound, (bay) with my ugly stick rod and 50lb spiderwire on the bottom… I didnt think i would catch something like that on the bottom but i was using shrimp. ( I’ve heard Bloodworm works well in the surf, never tried it, i’ve always had good luck with squid ) sure as hell looks like a striper to me… doesnt look red lol whatever it is it put up a good fight I went out on the surf with the ocean rod i had 1 morning 5-7am… got nothing but 1 bite and lost my rig and snapped the 100lb line ☹ all of a sudden the drag started spining like crazy and i tightened it up, It jerked again so i tried to hook it and whatever it was snapped the line… ---

its a redfish, but anyhow that fish that broke 100lb test must have been something insane, that would bug the hell out of me for weeks wanting to know what kind of fish it was. it could have been a big redfish or striper, both can reach 50 pound plus but then again in the ocean it could have been any damn thing ---
