Nice sunset stroll tonight. I got four calicos and three short wsb's this evening, on plastics and all released.

The gear is unique for sure. I have an 11 1/2 foot rod loaded with 30 lb spectra, it's more like flippin' for largemouth bass in heavy cover than "tossing plastics", and when a 2 lb calico dives into 15 lbs of seagrass, you're glad you got the TWO-SPEED :shock: ....... well, at least the heavy line.

Andy, c'mon .... the sea grass is the best part!!! It's FUN. Its actually required for the bite to get going on this beach, so I just fish rigs that won't catch the grass, which makes for an interesting challenge. If a wave full of that seagrass breaks onto your line, YOU'RE DONE, even with 30 pound spectra. It's THE BLOB of the sea.

btw, dropshotting will work around here too, esp from the kayak.

AND THESE SHOULD BE COMING SOON (YUM!)
