saturday night at sykes

PorknBeans · 10-25-2009, 06:37 PM

So my friend and i headed out to 3mb but we couldnt find pinfish and mullet that we could castnet. We head over to sykes instead and caught bull after bull. Luckily we managed a couple slots. The bait was cut mullet or white trout, they were hitting everything to tell the truth. All OUR bulls went back but im sad to see fat over slot reds being harvested. One or two is not to big of a deal but a guy was keeping every bull he brought up which was around 12 or 13 fish. he was giving us a hard time for obeying the law:boo:boo:boo. He left while we had one on and we were left without a net so i hand lined a 38 incher up onto the deck, got him unhooked and sent him back. he scored a 9.7 on his return dive, quite respectable. Had a great night and got my buddy his first true big fish, he is new to fishing. Hoping to head out there again soon.

reds are indiscriminate eaters...don't necessarily need live bait...

I would've called FWC on him, tip the number is on the back of your fishing license.

Nice catch! It's people like him that causes us not to be able to keep more than one slot!

Good report. How did one guy carry 13 bull reds off bridge, without lookin suspicious? He was toting a load.
