What do you do when the gulf is a monster?

jjam · 11-08-2009, 07:28 PM

Loaded up ourfloatiliaand headed to the river....Andy aka "River Runner"wanted to ck out east river for some cats and jerk some perch...

We caught several blue gills and Cassidy help ck the preset lines which produced a nice striper bass and what look like some kind of northern...

No Cats to be had

but it was nice spending a beautiful day with great friends.

Anybody know what the actual identity of this fish?

Cassidy with a nice striper as well

Jackfish. Also, that striper looks like a hybrid... look at the lines, their broken up. Regardless, nice fish!

I'm in Pensacola. How do I get to East River and where do I launch? Thanks.
