Forget the soap fish, the bugs are STACKED

Post by Poseidon10/31 »

Everyone's running around like a bunch of headless chickens trying to get those slot soap fish right now. I went out in the bay to find the first lobster spot (which isn't even a great one) completely stacked. I couldn't even see the sink I was diving on because it was covered in bugs. The biggest had a carapace of 6 3/4". Beast. The smallest one I took was 4". 20 min paddle out, 5 min diving, 20 min paddle back. 6 lobsters, easy day. If you're on the pier right now, you're doing it wrong! lol

That wreck by the Rick is stacked too, and my buddy shot a nice gag off it last week.

Miguelito......send me a PM the next time you are going. Sounds like it could be fun catching a few of those scoundrels.

Sea roaches .... great cubera and mutton bait. Other than that crushed up they are great chum.
Dreaming the dream that one day I can be as good as some of the boatless pros and catch some 12 inch mangrove snapper.
