One time I was fishing in Delacroix on a windy Friday afternoon. Paddling my arse off, trying to keep position, chasing the elusive redfish.
Got pulled up to this killer looking cut, cast that gold spoon straight down the pipe and started to work it.
Right when I got near the clump of grass at the end of the cut, I felt a few bumps on the spoon, pants got tight as frick and the breathing became erratic.
As soon as I pulled the spoon out of the water to re-cast, that little 6" copper bastard lunged out of the water and barely missed the hook.
That was all she wrote.

Had the biggest redfish I've ever seen straighten the hooks on my spook jr while yak fishing in Delacroix. That one still hurts.

Was on a fishing trip in MX several years ago. Was fly fishing for tarpon. I had jumped 5 before I could finally get the hook in one.
let me repeat 5.
One was pretty good size tarpon as well. 60+lbs.
