recess (6/28/2009)I don't think you know how much time goes into a good catch of fish for us we usally start catching bait 2 days before we plan on fishing and keep them in pens , we make sure we have a assortment of bait . Because the day you plan on fishing there will be no bait to be found Just murphys law . Bait has been scattered on most days though , try gulf side of fort pickens and down the beach a little on a incoming tide for cigar minnows, threadfins on the tide lines and pinfish in the grass with a chum block and small hooks tipped with squid. other than that what kind of bait are you looking for? sorry if i'm giving out to much information for some guys bait spots but then again this is Qand A on a fishing forum.but if all fails call tony the bait man and find out exactlly what time he is going to start selling bait and be there we he opens .

Great info Tim, but he said "other than Recess Team" LOL Q & A - (not too much info) as all anglers need bait so should NOT upset too many...
We've been picking a few Fins and cigs just on/off the bar gulf side of Pickens as well and then always stop at the mass totop off the bait well and usually snag a few hard tails there too..and wehave better luck withthe smaller sabiki rigs and sometimeshv tip with squid if the bait bite is slow.
Good luck! and yes I hv been skunked before so don't beat yourself up so bad when it happens!
