Targeting Triple tail
 

Any guide recommendation for chasing just triple tail?
haven't crossed that one off the bucket list yet

Sight fish them under floating mats of weed or debris. 1/8 leadhead with shrimp cast to them usually does the trick.

U looking 4 a guide? R tips if u looking for a trip I can get u on em

Attachment 38741 that's like 90 sum thing lol

Satellite Rigs usually hold u won't see them on these but there there.. When i started spearfishing u learn lot more bout these fish and where they hide. All though site fishing is easiest when they on edges of grass bouy etc. They dont have to be seen to be caught hide under bouys trash debris and grass mats. In the lake around s end find old crab pot lines sometimes can be line shy. 20lb flouro and small hook w live shrimp fixes that biggest trick w tails is let em eat it watch lotta people see the fish hit it and set hook and he only nibbling on tail I give em jus lil extra to eat it depending on bite.... Sometimes they just inhale it sometimes nibble

You fish the live shrimp under a cork?

Are there many of these in the lake? Never caught one.

Both under cork r free line. Are some in lake not many I average 10 -25 a yr out lake and I'm out there a lot typically just look when water extremely clean and run some pots might catch 3 or 4 can't really target them in lake gotta go offshore

1/16 oz leadhead keeps your bait in the strike zone better. I always have luck wit a Gulp! skrimp on a 1/16oz leadhead, but I have caught em on a live skrimp under a cork.

All caught on Gulp shrimp about a month ago on grass mats.

If you are gonna post that, get it right!!!! We caught 104 that day.

Fish rig platforms. We usally target them with large table shrimp by freelining them or pitching it to them.

Lol

!!!!:eek:!!!!! Boat must have been a little slower comin in.

Oh yea, do NOT pick them up under gill plate, js sayin.

And 94 between 3 of us two days before that!

looks like it would be fun to catch

i remember the discussion on 2cool about this. Them boys was mad! Lol!!!!

I know! When you google "94 tripletail" there are no positive comments on the search. Rather funny. Some even go as far as comparing some of fish to a bream. Really????its just funny to me.

Google 94 tripletail and look at thehulltruth discussion.

I posted that pic up there.... It didn't last too long lol

and it was awesome!!! I laughed for a whole day and even when i think about it now. Them guys were pissed! Lol!!!!!

Buncha damn meat whores!

Why were they pissed?

What I think is funny is they say there small lol it's bc there so many in pic not one is under 5 lbs

Ima post this on 2 cool just to stir the pot

Jealousy

LOL!!!!!!

LMAO

just googled '94 tripletail' and there are a couple sites that were commenting on the catch:rotfl:

All ranged from 5 to 14lb with average 8 lbs they look small in pic but they aibt

If there woulda been more ice chest room there would be more num1 there more triple tail out there than them idiots know num2 offshore boats can't target them bc no troll motor. 2 90 percent don't know how to catch em num 3 how many days out yr can bay boats go 35 miles when I say we saw over a 1,000 in 2 hrs I'm not exaggerating this was caught in 2 hrs stuffed every ice chest live well and rod box no more room and yes we ate every1.

i heard the details of the trips from someone and it sounded like a blast

Your right there's alot more triple tail out there than people realize. I have had several trips with 50 to 100 fish. Like u said most people just don't know how to catch them or know where to look.

it's been a long time since i've caught one and imo one of the best eating fish there is.

Exactly, so if I ever get on em like that, Katy bar the door son ! I am gonna load the wagon!

lol!!!!!! Hell yeah i like this response.
