You got some pics???

:redface:southern maybe if you start being nice to W he will give you some fishing tips!:grinpimp::rotfl:

Are you kidding?! I was trying to set hooks in em, not catch one in a pose! I got a couple of pics of some scales where one hit my transom but, it was obviously after the fact.

How bout a few catchin tips now?

I wish I had some dang shrimp today!

Maybe if "free health care" was really free, Obama would be popular!:*****::*****:

I try to keep the better parts of SC free from the net bias but, if it carries over with some, then, so-be-it. I really hope no one takes my stuff in there too seriously.:grinpimp:

Just making sure...You sure you wasn't throwing into huge schools of mullet OR lady fish?

Oh yeah, W's home so it's time to play parrot!:*****::*****::*****:
Come on Jr., I may not know much but, I do know what a red looks like.:shaking:

you beat me to it w if they were boiling EVERYWHERE you most likey were chasing mullet all day:pissed:

Are u sure u were not spooking them. Had it happen today. tried to sight fish them and got in the ponds and sun went away. would only see them when they got close to the trolling motor. They didnt haul butt but got nervous and wouldnt eat until I put the Power Pole down and just sat there. Waited a few min and they started swimming around the boat, and picked which ones we wanted. The key is when you find a few fish close together let off the trolling motor and sit there for 10 or 15 min. Especially in clear water.

I've seen mullet boil. I know exactly what you are talkin about. I also saw MANY reds!...You know, red/brown fish with a black dot by their tail.

Yeah, they'd spook and I'd stop trolling. Sometimes, I'd drift, others, I'd drop anchor and wait up to 30 minutes. More often then not, you'd see em swirl when they got within 10 feet of the boat.

see, when i site cast i'll often spook them aswell..but as soon as i see them swim off, I stop the trolling motor and cast to the "area" that they just swam off from..98% of the time i get blow ups for this fish. works for me with topwater.

Throw a Pearl/Black Fatboy floater at em'....... :D

Fish the outside edge of the schools, don't drag the line thru the middle of the school.
If'n they ain't biting on live bait, they might not bite on anything.
If it was Ladyfish, they will bite on bare hooks. I saw that last week. They will hit a 2 lb. trout on a hook. Them lil thangs are greedy.

It may well have just been my luck. I tried everything I know, which isn't much.:*****: As far as live bait not working, I kinda thought the same thing. Maybe you and I have something in common with the fishin gig?:*****::cry:

:eek::eek::eek::eek::*****::*****::rotfl::rotfl::r otfl::rotfl:

OU Fan..........Look next time this happens get you a big azz pop N cork with a dead shrimp!!!! Hunting Fool told me that's how he gets em to bite at the barrier

Next time you go back to that spot.....try catchin' some plankton with your cast net. :smokin:

:*****: X 1000

My issues are with weather. Every time I stay home, the weather is flat calm.
Sat. I had to go to a party on Pleasure Island and the Sabine Lake, Sabine River and the GOM was flat calm.
The day before, lots of rain and wind. I suck at predicting fishing weather.

ALRIGHT Salty that's enough!!! Spit Coco Puffs and milk everywhere:cry::cry::cry::cry: ... Damn milk came out my nose:pissed::pissed::pissed:
