Live Bait
It is my experience that live bait is the key to catching kings in the bay. Just about any small fish captured in the bay is a good bait. The best that I have found is menhaden, although white trout, mullet, croakers and pinfish work well. I would not attempt to troll in the bay. To me, that is a waste of time and gas. Find a good spot where there is either bait or a slow decline in depth. Around buoys, piers and bridges tend to be a hot spot. Good Luck.

Just spoke to my dad and he is out between the bridges on I-10 and just hooked up to a tarpon, ended up spooling him. We are going to be trying for the kings tomorrow morning just floating some LYs west of the 3 mile.
