Re: Dumb lil' John question

I like to use a worm hook with a kink at the eye. Rig it like a weed less worm but run the hook through the soft bait and let the tip and barb lay right on top of the bait.

Re: Ft. Desoto

I fished Desoto from 1pm to sunset today. Water is clear and not much in the way of bait on the flats. Not much mullet either.
Once the tide started going out the trout turned on, caught 5 all in the span of about 30 mins. All dinks 12 in to 14 in

Re: Louisiana Crab Cakes and Blackened Redfish....from .....

Whoooooooohooo....Slap yo moma! I can't wait to try the crab cakes.
The blackened redfish makes it so hard to turn them back.

The wife brings home red and black caviar this past weekend, I'm thinking gross, why eat bait when I can have the whole fish.

Re: What's In Your Wallet?

Re: What's In Your Wallet?

Re: Does anyone know of a river that you can....

The Myakka State Forest map shows a primitive camp ground and a canoe launch....never been there, so I don't know the details.

A elk hair caddis? What size hook?
