March MAdness for some world Wide fisherman!

I had a group of 2 guys here on vacation from Germany. They said they'd fished all over the world and were looking forward to the trip. We left the pine island co op around 645 out thru redfish pass in search of some meat for a few meals, then on to some bigger fish. We picked up some great bait in about 50 ft of water, with some horse threadfins, large spanish sardines, blue runners, squirrels and pinfish rounding out the full livewell.  We made our first stop in about 85 feet of water which produced some decent lane snapper and at least 3 or 4 BIG hits from fish that took my crew to town.  Broke off as the fish got back to their haunts.  We made another drift or two and the bite slowed so outward we poked.  Next stop was in 90ish feet and we proceeded to put 3 keeper red grouper in the boat, the bigger one a bit over 27".  Here, too, we missed a few Big Bites that were surely bruiser grouper.   With plenty of fish for a few meals, we made a move out to some higher relief structure in 110 ft.  We dropped down blue runners which were engorged by some AJs.  We landed 2 juveniles as well as two that were pushing 40" to the fork.  In between AJs, the flat line on the 4000 spinner went off and a 10 lb cuda was landed. As we started to run low on bait, I sent down a pinfish on the flatline... About 5 minutes later, it was inhaled and the 6500 spinner was singing. After a bunch of back and forth fight, a giant cuda surfaced, hooked just right with the circle hook in the corner of its mouth and not even a touch of fraying on the 60 lb mono leader. 
Weather layed down for a great comfy ride back in.  Both the guys thanked me and said it was their best day of fishing, ever. ​
