JACK CREVALLE

 2-24-2013--Had a group of three, including an eleven year old boy.  He caught his first redfish right off the bat.  Later, we spotted Jack Crevalle feeding on a pod of menhadden.  I told them to bait up and throw into the feeding frenzy while I maneuvered the boat.  The boy was first in the water and hooked up right away.  He did a good job of fighting the fish.  When the fish had taken almost all of the line I cranked up and followed the fish.  The boy tired and the other fishermen took turns at fighting the fish.  After about a 20 plus minute battle the fish tired and they were able to get it in the boat.  It measured 41 inches in length.
