Florida keys patch reef and ledge attempts from the kayak. I don't know what I am doing out here since I am just throwing lures but I caught some fish. Snappers, cobia, and grouper all bit these two days. Although I made mistakes with too tight of a drag on one fish, I then fished with too little drag on the day when I hooked a grouper.
