Boatless Fishing Forum, Reports, Info

Took a walk with the girlfriend tonight on the beach saw a few guys fishing so I stopped and asked if they had caught anything. One of the guys said no we ve been out for 4 hours and hadnt gotten anything. I asked what they were using the guy said sand fleas and I was like ok guys have a good night good luck. Right as I start to walk off the rod bends over and comes flying out of the sand spike guy grabs the rod out of the sand and the fight is on. After 5-10 min he brings up a nice 20 or so pound permit, guy was so stoked. He said they had been out for 6 months trying to catch one and finally got it. Asked if I could take a few pics for the forum they were totally cool with it.





If the guys that caught this see this thread shoot me an email to barlow.chris@yahoo.com and I will send you the full size original pics off my camera.

Nice catch....to whoever caught it

Yo, I've seen him before. I think that's Bocajettyraton. He fishes that area. Nice fish BRJ.

That's not BJR, unless he went through some changes since the last time I saw him. Regardless that's a nice permit

Even better that he got it on the old school mitchell with the manuel.

Ya we were talking about that because I have the same reel at home. Got to love those old mitchells they are bulletproof.

WASN'T ME PLAYAA!! Bout time that cat caught something bigger than a whiteing, like the Osprey that hunt that beach. Well now I probly won't catch anything tomorrow on my day off. I just hope I can get a spot at my spot tomorrow. Teenangler.... changes since the last time you seen me I'm a 35 year ole geezer, no changes going on here except grey hair! Thats the Boca look, it would be easy to confuse me with him, well if I lost about 100 pounds...LOL ....I still don't know your name Permit slayer in picture, but you've met me more than once, just save me a Pabst brah. Next time I see you I'm stealing your spot!! I think I know who you are here. I can't wait to fish tomorrow sundown. LOL this is so funny.

Yeah, TeenAngler I stay in reasonable shape. Not even avatar ospreys could take my monsterous fish. Look, I have 15 lbs of permit im my freezer... CAREABOUTIT. anyway, I didn't post the report. Don't steal my spot BRJ. I fish south Spanish River Beach (as you can see by the picture), not Jap Rock, so dont worry, brah. See you in the morning (xoxo )

junochris, thanks for the props. I love that mitchell 498. caught many fish over 20lbs and it's so much fun hearing that coffee ginder going to work. also, thanks dipy. i'll send you my email.

Sounds like permit and sand fleas are on Spanish River beach in Boca, I will be fishing just North of Jap Rock tomorrow morning. The sand bars and troughs that form North of Jap Rock are insane, like fish highways. I personally have caught some big keeper Pompano's at this spot. Dang, can't wait to fish in the morning.

NICE FISH, coolcow, congrats! :-)

Congrats.

Boca is the spot for beach based Permit. Great catch!

Coolcow thats who that is. Right on anyway nice fish. I could see Avatar Osprey taking the fish and your still hanging on saying no way your getting this fish Avatar Osprey. Me and GatorJ already mugg that spot preaty hard. But really you got the luck so next time I'm gonna fish next to you. I'll bring the pounders of Pabst.

Nice permit

That mitchell is on a steel or aluminum surf rod. Both are ~40 years old and were bought at a garage sale for $5 together. Fishing in a time machine. I might release the next I catch (if I'm lucky enough to get another), but that's some dang good table fare.

Emailed you the pics this morning. If you dont get them for some reason let me know and I will send them again.

way to nail em from the beach cow

Got the pictures. Thanks again. That fish proves the longer you have lines in the water, the higher chances you have of getting that trophy fish. The more you go out, the more you learn and your luck gets better. Weird how that works. Thanks for the compliments. Next up (hopefully), is beach tarpon sometime this spring/summer on the ol' Mitchell.

awesome fish bro very nice... im loving ur setup with the rod and reel very nice

This is so true! Hit it 4-21 beach was weeded out.

Sweet fish on a sweet reel

Nice one dude. Im gonna get one in the morning...as stated earlier...nice area. Was looking at the maps and tagged a nice little exit for Dad.

I've been real happy with the fishing NORTH of Broward. I have some business to handle up there so I might try the morning bite out. If not then the evening for sure....

I had a spot closer to but got there and there was a bunch of 70 year old male couples rubbing each other down with oil. I nearly chummed the surf and left quick. Then, moments earlier a busty South African MILF stopped and talked to me about what I was going for and then invited me to a BBQ.....somewhere called adull or adolt.....then it hit me...she meant ADULT as in "adult BBQ" LMAO

Anyway...morning or evening might see some of you there...If anyone is there I will flash the universal sign of Pabst

I need one of those Spiderwire Backpacks...with the tackle boxes and built in cooler...perfect for bridges, pier and surf...if ya dont know check em out...sick.

Go away dude. You suck!! Havin fun? Your a TROLL!! We seen what your up too months ago. Go home can't skate here.

No troll here bud,

I have been totally honest and do my part. Posted one joke pic and personally had it taken down to get back to business and made good. Help people out whenever.

Thats a pretty chitty post bro....honestly..especially when its been all business.

See you on the pond
