Take a throw net and catch your own bait. Fish, shrimp, crabs,sand fleas will work

That's a good idea too. If I didn't get to go very often, I would certainly have all bases covered.Quote:

Talked to a guy the other day that said he was this huge Orange mass up ahead of him and when he got there there were thousands of huge over 30 inch reds.
Hope ya'll have a blast. Sounds like you are pretty well prepared for everything that you can. If you see any Bouyo Billy Shrimp (come in a three pack) get a few packs of the pink and the natural colors. Use them under clacker corks (tourist rigs) and float them while you are casting jigs or hard baits. We always have two floating behind the boat while drifting. Usually our bigger fish of the day comes on those baits. Keep you drag set loose but just enough to set the hook. Look forward to the pics.
We gonna do that SH. not those baits but got a secret bait a feller told me to buy. Says it's the best Speck bait he ever bought. Gonna be on the lookout for birds diving as well. Specks will be right up under the diving birds
Watch out for them great white sharks, they're as bad as big foots.
I'm skeered of sharks; they'll eat you!Quote:
