Rickhise- The people I seen live bait fishing were not catching any fish either, like I said. They were doing no better than we were. As for pm'ing you before my next trip down, not necessary, best of luck to you, I hope you do well. Live bait fishing is something I've never done, nor has it been a point of intrest. I personally like the thought that I am "fooling" the fish, but hey, to each his own. I just hope that whether it is artificial or live bait we all catch and release, so one day someone else may get to feel the mighty fight of the wonderful bronzebacks! I hope that I didn't offend, not my intentions by any means.
