can those Gucci guys actually fish ????

Com'on Dog, I've owned my SeaCraft for 23 years. You know it's not the dress code, it's the VDH that draws the bites..... Sit down some day with my photo albumn & scope out the memories

This is getting real close and I'm getting excited - although I'm not getting excited about having to go do the toilet bowl treatment - buff and put Rejex on that crapper. I'm going to try the Rejex as wax in our rivers just doesn't cut it. I do have to try and look good since Mr Gucci AKA Capt Chucks boat will be there [img]/forum/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img] I may try just washing it but at least I may catch more fish than him - can those Gucci guys actually fish ????

Also whats the situation on drunk shrimping, I know they run over there sometimes and it could be fun if the moon is right kinda maybe, just trying to figure out what crap to bring short of an 18 wheeler

the shrimping has been good, and it is really good 3night before and 3 nights after full moon, esp. this time of year. Out-going tide near the inlet. Flacrab.com has G2 so does jethros shripming page. Must use a clear or white mono net no blue or green. BTW Scientifically speaking green and blue lights work best for drawing bait and shrimp.

I have a clear net but I'd rather go buy them than throw the thing, now snookerd on the other hand may want to borrow it.......

[Snookerd]

Dogsucker-I thought you would be into using the "dip net". It's so perfect for you.......

[eggsuckindog]

As a matter of fact I have 2 I use over here and was really thinking that way. I hate throwing that big ass net I have almost as much as sticking 4 sabiki hooks in my arm, thats fun too

I was talking about a dip net. I dont think that the concentrations are great enogh for a castnet. You would get worn out very quickly casting on the one and two that pop up here and there vs. just dipping them.

[Old'sCool]

Can you bait for them??? We use 50/50 fish meal/white clay during the season here.

[3rdday]

Never tried that, first I have heard of it, I have seen some crack a can of catfood and toss it out there. I do know they are attracted to lights.

Oh. forgot, when water temp rises above 66 degrees the run will start.

Speaking of shrimp. This has puzzled me for 15 years. No real run here in W.P.B.,but No. and So. of us they run. Is this due to the effluent runoff from Ag. and Big Sugar in Okeechobee. We don`t have a lotta seagrass.
