Just got back from my lunch time stroll down to Palafox Pier. When I got there a guy was hooked up and after a good fight he pulled a 20# king over the rail. It was foul hooked under the chin so it was a damn fine job getting him in.

cold fronts, man, cold fronts, keep your eyes to the west. the kings know when there coming each one gets a little stronger till they push the kings south for the winter. the kings will feed hard before they leave. we have about 4 or 5 weeks then its FLOUNDER time. get'em boys.

On that dead ribbonfish, do you just hang it under a baloon or troll, or work it under a popper, etc?????
Thanks................

| I catch just as many kings on dead bait as I do on live bait. I think freshness is key to best results but i've caught kings up to 30lbs. on my kayak using nasty re-refrozen cigar minnows (I'm a cheap ass and will refreeze anything). The 3 biggest kings I've caught this year from my yak were all on dead bait, 2 on cigs and 1 on a ribbonfish.

people need to learn how to keep things to themselves. giving a report is one thing, but giving someone detailed information about what wehre how and when is f&^%$ ridiculous. next time i hook up offshore i'll be posting all my numbers for everyone.

Awww...Sorry for giving away your secret spot...Its not like people have been kingfishing every october for the past 40 years there or anything..and its really not possible that the kings get up in there chasing the menhanden,mullet and ribbonfish every year at this time..If this is your idea of a secret spot then you might want to keep your offshore numbers to yourself unless you want everyone fishing the mass or the oriskany

it's no SECRET. point is, those who know to go there know where it is. no sense in bringing hoards of duchebags that don't know the system. if it's been a hot spot for that many years, then it's obvious that the same crowds show up again and again. problem with the internet being that now abunch of jelly-dong brained dilly-dos are crowding up the good fishin' so the locals don't even get a shot.

| Dude, I think you miss the point of a public fishing forum. There are plenty of fish, its OK to let someone else catch one every now and then.

Are you even a local? I have no problem fishing around cheesedicks down there as long as everyone is polite and stays out of each others way...A lot of those "duchebag" "jelly-dong brained dilly-dos" might not know what they are doing but they are trying to learn...some of them are trying catch fish for dinner...ive met a lot of people on the bridge and piers and have had great conversations..i even met some forum members at Bayfront yesterday...Its better then fishing by your lonesome..IMO

| I guess you could classify me as one of those newby jackasses who read the forum to learn how to fish since I have only been fishing for close to 6 months now. And on that happy note, I am from Pcola, raised since a lil guy and am familiar with Palafox pier, but never fished off there. Just out of curiousity, do you fish off the south side of the pier or off the east or west side? Not trying to steal anyone's secret spot off the pier, just trying to learn where to fish down there. Thanks for the help in advance.
