After jigging deep for about an hour, I went back in shallower one more time to drift my grouper spot. Eventually, I connected, but luck was not with me, I got smoked on my 65lb braid with and 80lb leader.

After the loss, I decided to give the wrecks of Fort Lauderdale a try. It took about an hour to motor across the shipping channel to the wreck zone. There are 4 wreck structures within 1000ft of each other.

I metered a lot of bait on the wrecks. I did several drifts over them for zilch. I tried trolling baits around them for zilch. Eventually, I broke out the Sabiki to see if I could jig up a Little Tunny to troll for Wahoo.
