Yep...a lot of skiffs slogged it in the Cut or SOBE. The water on the beach is around 17 feet and the Cut can be 50 feet. Those fish can fight really deep and not jump.
I happily avoided all the skiffs and big boats blasting through and searched inside waters. The air temps. when I started fishing was in the 40's. The water was obviously warmer than that and after seeing quite a few fish roll, I connected with a tarpon around 70 pounds. Some fast-stroking and unrelenting but intelligent pressure put the fish alongside my skiff in 15 minutes. Loads of jumps and caught on 10-pound class tackle. It made my day!
