Finally finished it. The skin is from a 51" western diamondback rattlesnake out of Kansas City(had to wait on him to finish the tanning process). I opted not to buy the skin from mudhole because it's...

Amazing how much good meat is on a fish head, especially upper slot redfish & sheepshead.
I can bake a 5# sheepshead whole and we will pick it clean, looks like a dinosaur skeleton at the museum...

The consensus is fish (fillets) are OK to eat from healthy fish (at least in moderation)...

1. A Speck Rig has a lot of hair length behind the hook and there's nothing wrong with the hookup ratio of those ;-)
Almost all pompano jigs have just a short distance behind the hook to "help with...
I banned vatherla a couple days ago, he/she is in Washington D. C. and had been signed up for over a month and never posted. We can't always tell they are spammers when they are inactive.

Fishing is only slow (and late) due to delayed water temperatures rising to necessary levels for bait fish spawning migrations--they are stopping just shy of our waters as a result--we are still...
I have to believe that the recreational fisherman puts a LOT more money into the economy here than the guy that goes to the fish market (in another state) and pays $13 a pound-or whatever-for...
It's a honey hole all right, great place to take your honey on a late night fishing trip if you don't want to be interupted by catching a fish.
It is also unlawful to land a shark on any of the beaches in Gulf Shores and Orange Beach.
There are a few spots over towards Fort Morgan, but there isn't a lot of public beach access or parking....
BTW, you should have increasing incoming tides in the late afternoons over the remainder of your stay.
IF you have a pattern when you have caught fish under those conditions (two weeks ago?) I'd...
Nice reel!

Double sided sticky tape around the spool shaft will prevent braid slippage...

I've shown these at the store and am favorably impressed by them.
It's only 6oz heavier, but has a faster retrieve, nearly...

Salting bait is a great way to keep it fresh. It takes some time to do it right. I use pickling salt from the Kroger. 2 lbs for $2.00 it takes about that much for pound of shrimp. I head and peel the...

Tuck there are several factors that can make our water dingy (@ the pier):
Wind and waves stir up sediment and they suspend in the water as long as it is agitated.
Once the wind settles below 10...
