Friday afternoon I experienced a spectacular show of oversized snook on one of my favorite beaches. The pelicans read like Indian smoke signals to the mayhem that was taking place below the surface. The crystalline water seemed to boil as dozens snook to 40#+ attacked the schools of pilchards and sardines. As the sun sank below the horizon all I had to show for my efforts was a Long A Bomber with the tail hook torn out, a 60# leader that was frayed beyond additional usage, and oh yeah a 28# lineside. SWEET!

Maybe the next blitz will produce that new world recorld I was talking about.
