It's pretty cold here right now, and my boat is on the hard. I did
manage a few days of fishing recently down in Florida, where, while we
were there, the weather was pretty nice. Got to Disneyworld, too.
Why not post a few pictures of the fish you caught, the boat that you
went out on, etc.? Many of us would be interested in what kind of
bait/lures that you used, whether you were trolling or chunking, that
sort of thing.
I'll post those sorts of photos here once the assholes who are hell
bent on taking the newsgroup back to the bad old days either quit or
move on. Until then, it isn't worth the bit of effort it takes.
To respond "verbally," as it were, the day we went fishing in the ICW
and its creeks, we used 5' Ugly Sticks, Penn 4200 and 4300 spinning
reels, 6# braided line, and quarter-ounce jigs baited with live
shrimp. I also tossed a few plastics and several varieties from D.O.A.
The boat was a Carolina Skiff powered by a Honda outboard.
The day we went offshore, we were on a pretty, fairly new 30' Luhrs
and used live baitfish for trolling and for bottom fishing. The
trolling rigs were simple wire rigs, with separated treble hooks, the
sort of rig you use for kingfish. We were using Star Rods and shimano
lever drag reels. When we got tired of dragging baits, we did some
bottom fishing with egg sinkers, fishfinder rigs and circle hooks. We
also used dead squid and dead pogies for bottom fishing.
Porgies. You should have eaten them.
