made it out to bob hall this morning drove down the beach a ways at around 9:00am not to many spring breakers then....

get out on the pier and start setting up my slide on the south end

daskew1 was out on the pier, tearing up smacks off the north side of the T

the spanish macheral were thick tearing up tiny glass minnows on the surface

short video i was trying to show the smacks on the bait, looked a little cooler in person Smile

tried catching them a few different ways, ended up going to buy a 1once silver mann-o-lure twice and lost both of them lol

caught about ten of them and kept/filletted six



the sheepshead were thick around the pier legs too. i hooked over 15 of them

i kept these two 18inchers, i released and gave quite a few away




this is the biggest sheepie i hooked...21inches...released





daskew1 hooked this tuna/bonito (not sure what species) on a silver 1once mann-o-lure it gave him a good fight

a whole school of them came near the pier twice feeding on the glass minnows




was catching smacks when i hear surprised hollers from the other side of the T....i start sprinting, i get to my slide and land this 21pound jack in a few minutes...






He ate a huge bait, it was neat to hold another big jack. they have always been one of my favorite fish to fight










RELEASED!!





This is what the beach looked like around 4:00pm....spring breakers everywhere...

had a great time at the pier the fish were biting and the people friendly Cool

I have always wanted to catch a big jack, and a nice shark, two of the things I hope to accomplish this year. I am so jealous buy happy for you bro! I am curious as to what type of bait you use, do you catch your bait on the pier some way or use cut bait? Teach me oh wise one!

If you bring some slide line equipment out to BHP and run out a small live bait (pin fish , blue runner , spot , ect.) yuor chances of catching a big Jack are good this time of year. When the bait fish show up a little better(hopefully this week end ) the kings and tarpom will be smashing these baits as well. Alot of people i hearSay they dont like the pier cause of the people out there, but there are a pretty good group of guys that slide line out there and we work as a unit when we get a fish on. Good Times,come on out and join us ,even if the fishing is slow the fellowship is top notch.
