Beautiful fish. I'd even be happy to be there to watch someone else catch one of those things.

I knew once this happened John's standards would be...errrrr.... changed.

This site's history is one of ribbing live/dead baiters. That may change as many things do but when I start to see a bunch of threads on cast netting livies, keeping bait alive, farking O2 systems for yaks, I'm gone.

I agree. Tdsdad came to our forum to post about one hell of a day he had. There isn't a single one of us who would not be thrilled with the catching he had.

I've removed most of the non-topic stuff. If you want to have a bait vs arti discussion, do it in another thread. This thread belongs to tdsdad and his phenomonal day fishing!

If you are looking for sanity, there are probably better places on the internet for you.

Great catch man I wouldnt take offense to the clowning. There are some good people around here just gotta look hard. Plus some of these guys have no pics to post so they have to bash ya to fill a post.

If I was tossing a cast net and nabbed one of these guys I'd take a picture before I released it ! Good catch !!!! Fishing is fun, but catching will always be best.

I'm a 100% artificial user. I'm also a LOVER of catching redfish and those are some GORGEOUS redfish. I'm jealous!!! I'd have to say if I were fishing arties next to you and you were catching those fine fish with cut bait I'd REALLY be tempted to ask you for a hunk of bait!! And those flounder have me DROOLING!!

Beautiful fish!! Beautiful lil fishin buddy too!!

Congrats on a great day and a life long memory.

went back today and did ok-used mostly gulp shrimp and exude jerkbaits-caught several nice reds in the 27-34" range-jigged the shrimp on a circle hook

also used a sabiki rig to catch two pinfish-cut and tossed out, but no big boys today-did have a really big fish on for about 6-8 mins before he snapped the power pro-

I think its fine that some folks never use cut bait-I very rarely do, but when you are targeting those giant reds, and I have from boats and kayaks, it's very hard to hook up the really big ones (40"+) with any type of lure or fly-please tell me what lure has worked for you to catch a 44" red-

the only other time I use real bait is for tarpon, when they are pounding the pogie pods-most guides use the same thing and I don't think it's just for teaching purposes!!!

didn't see another person there all day today-fish were everywhere-here's a couple pics
