Hey Ben, Looks like it was a beautiful day and some fun action. Two doubleheaders on the same lure are awesome! As calm as it looks my buddy also flipped during an early morning Saturday launch out of Boca Raton. I think the short period between the waves and an unforeseen sand bar caught him by surprise. Of the 3 kayakers that went out, they were unable to make bait and had a horrible slow fishing day. I was going to go with them but abstained due to lingering COVID symptoms. Those Bluefish are good sized compared to the ones we typically catch farther Sth. Winter often drives them to Florida and we sometimes have runs off the piers and ICW. It looks like your well stocked up with bait for Shark fishing -- Nice.
