Re: Convince me to use artificials

For rod and reel, since no one else touched on this much, most of us on the flats prefer spincast to baitcast simply for distance. We fish shallow water, and use light baits that most baitcasters just can't throw. For an entry level rod and reel for arties I would highly recommend a shimano spheros ...

Re: Too much of a good thing...

An added note in response to parking in the middle of the school... Many times spooked mullet will spook the reds that follow them, especially on clear days with clear water.

Re: fishing from a paddle board

What he said... And lots of Bull Sharks, and thats what you will get if you put a lady fish on a big hook... Oh and by a lot of Manatees, he means HUNDREDS and they just love to swim all around you, then scratch themselves with your fishing line. Honestly for the amount of fish you will catch there,...

Re: Nail Biters

Went and picked me up some materials for these spoon flies... I cant express to you how odd it feels to browse for and purchase fake nails and gold nail polish...
