Most of the sal****er catfish I used to catch in Florida were five to
seven pounds, and they were terrific fighters on the really light tackle
I used in the inlets.

Every catfish I caught in sal****er was a pound or less. Real pests.
Never saw anybody catch a good sized sal****er catfish, which is
why I posted that Potomac link. Don't know if those are real salt
water catfish, or some brackish water variety of freshwater river
cats.

My favorite inlet fish, though, were the whiting. Really small, but
school swimmers so you could catch a lot of them, and they were easy to
clean and delicious. We used to catch these in Nassau Sound, just north
of Big Talbot Island State Park, a little north of Jacksonville.

The only inlet I fished was Sebastian, and I think I only caught a
stone crab. It got me too. Had a nice dive about 6 feet down in the
rocks to get a rod/reel my brother dropped.
They were netting a mess of mullets there, and a guy told me they were
good smoked. We were basically picnicking and watching the activity.
