Nice session .
How far out were you casting ? Beyond the furthest wave in the last pic or closer in ? Cheers .

the fish were fairly deep so maybe near the 100 yards id say.

you really need to be where you were positioned to hit the fish

that beach is such a heart breaker - you make the draw and the comp is nearly over!
