Two days, three citations and an ANGEL SHARK
Cobia, Red drum, and Flounder
Sunday the 2nd, Robin, Captain Mark Wray, and I set up chumming on the shoals at 6:30 am with visions of big cobia. Turns out, our first drag-screamer was a nice 47-inch citation red drum. We continued to boat big reds until the tide turned, and then boated a few more! We finally landed a citation cobia later in the afternoon. It was smoldering during the middle of the day when the wind died. Final citation count: 6 Reds, 1 cobia
Tuesday the 4th, the same crew headed out for flounder. Using live bait over structure, on the first drop, I pulled in a nice 9-pound flatfish. We managed a few more keepers, but the most interesting catch was what Mark thought was a world record flounder. As it came to net, it turned out to be a fish we had never seen before. The fish was about four feet long and 3 feet wide. It was brown, had wings like a skate, and a mouth full of wicked teeth. It was the meanest fish I had ever seen! As the mystery fish lay on the deck, it proceeded to lunge and snap at everything in reach. We were a hilarious site jumping and prancing to avoid the razor sharp teeth of the enraged animal. It chased Robin clear up onto the gunwale! We agreed it must be some sort of shark, and released it. I looked it up on the internet, and it turned out to be an angel shark, which is a protected species.
i wonder if there are any that big at rudee
