Are you Lawson’s Uncle? I’ve pulled many a monster off that same dock. Glad to see someone else who knows the trick with these docks... just open the bail and let them swim, normally works out, fighting them is a guaranteed break off. The bigger Snook should start showing up at this time of year. Now everyone knows where these fish are, for years nobody bothered going back there, they all just worked the inlet.
Your videos are fantastic! Please tell me what leader and main line you use. We caught a 36 and a 39 last time we went but lost a bunch in the mangroves. I was experimenting with some mono from 25 to 40 lbs and it didn't work out.
