The boys and I spent 7 hours a the beach yesterday! Perfect day with a nice sea breeze keeping everything cool. We started the day fishing and ended playing in the surf with some great friends. Alex caught his first Jack Crevalle, a tough fighting fish that can grow to well over 40lbs. Don't overlook this little one's size, JCs are some of the hardest fighting fish in the ocean. A larger one kept me on my kayak for well over an hour one day before I could bring him to the boat. This one took a live white bait (ocean minnow, so to speak). There's a little finesse in casting light tackle in the surf, and while Alex didn't cast this time, he did bait the hook, set the hook and fight the fish back to shore. Enjoy...

Sounds like a fun day.
Alex has now caught more fish out of the surf than his father.
