I had a chance to hit the sand last night. The rest of my Thursday Night Grinner Crew couldn't make it out. So, I hit a local beach and landed this nice Soupfin. It hit on an incoming tide and a center cut of bullet tuna from Seafood City. I didn't have a tape measure, so all I can say is, she was chunky with bite marks.

RIGHT ON DRE!  Congrats boss!

I just saw your PM, but see you figured it out.  I didn't check the site yesterday as I was out fishing myself, but hell of a catch.  Bullet tuna is some of my favorite bait to use when it's available.

That looks like a pretty big jaw mark.  If it's a 7-gill, it's a big momma!

It was pretty thick and it did feel good getting out.

It was a bit of a chore since I did not have a headlamp that night.
