I'm from Cincinnati and my daughter lives in Pensacola. Our family comes to Pensacola 2-3 times a year. I love to saltwater fish an go as often as possible while visiting. Residents of Pensacola are very fortunate to have so many places to fish without a boat. I frequent Bob Sikes Bridge to fish.
My last trip was over Thanksgiving. With such a wonderful structure to fish from I can't understand why the people that use it don't give it more respect. I know it was a busy weekend but can't understand all the trash, dead fish, discarded fishing line and hooks left behind. There are garbage cans about every hundred feet but it seems to be too much trouble to use them. The fishing experience is so much more enjoyable in a clean environment. I know it is just a few that are irresponsible.
Sorry but I had to vent! I will now have some cheese with my whine.
PS Fished three days using live pin fish and dead bait. Caught nothing but pig fish, ribbon fish, pin fish, one white trout and one small grouper.
Where were the reds?
