When you get down in Deland again you gotta holler. Like to meet you and at least shake your hand. Might even fish some. Lots of us close by there.

Yea I know, but there is soooo much good fishing within 30 minutes of home it is hard to load up and drive 4-5 hours away to fish. Heck, it's hard to drive the 45 minutes to hour to Crescent when the bite was off the chain up there.

A little piece of white plastic bait makes a lasting dough ball. Works for mullet.

Will do. My buddy inherited his father's house on Lake Kissimmee. He fixed it up for a vacation place. We trying to work out a trip there. He is joining me at Santee Cooper for a week of fishing next week.

They are huge and would certainly put up a big fight. Not sure if they would eat good would they? Anyone have any ideas on how to get one other than with a Bow/Arrow!

:biggrin

Vegetation fish. Invasive fish. Hmm won't chase bait or a carrot. Haha I know. A bow n arrow sounds right and some hot grease to boot. Good eats.

I have caught them on the big o fishing for shell crackers. Red worms or crickets.

Dynamite works the best
