Great report  . cool pictures and all. You gotta love those AJs.... we went out sunday and every AJs was 1" short/ lots of red snapper, sharks and some trigger fish..'till flipper showed up. I though dolphins were smart fish, but these ones were hooked on my diamond jigs.....talk about pulling drag...they were like 300lbs+ easy ...hooks gave out in all of them...... Fist time I see those cuban hogfish...cool color scheme...nice very nice, oh!, one question what depth did you get those Ajs on....

| Nice variety. You're right on the shark ID, that is a smooth dogfish
