Well it has only been 12 days since I caught my first good shark in Mexico beach and I can't wait any longer to fish so I am heading down to Pensacola to fish and will be camping out at the state park at Ft Pickens and will fish in that area. I will post a report once I return.....................good luck to anyone headed out this weekend ;)

Well.................can you say skunked :lol:

I had bait out on 3 rods from 11pm Friday night through 2pm Saturday in the bay and Saturday night @ 8pm through 10am Sunday on the ocean side and only had 1 run on one of my 6/0's with bonita on it....something hit it about 30 min after running the bait out Saturday night and it was screaming for 5-7 seconds. I was on the phone with the wife and by the time I got to the reel and was tightening the drag it stopped. That was it for the whole trip except for catching bait which I was only able to catch hardheads & some other fish that was similar to a pin fish. I had brought a little bait I had in my freezer (bonita) & used it up quick and then used hardheads and the before mentioned fish I could not identify for bait but niether one of those did anything at all. I have got to work on getting some good fresh bait when I am on my next trip because it seems to be the ticket for everyone else.

Anyone that has some suggestions for catching some good baits please chime in.......it would be appreciated :D

All in all I enjoyed being out on the beach but I am frustrated with the lack of results so far ................its getting personal now between me and the sharks :D

Oh well I am planning on going again August 1st weekend and hopefully will have something better to report........like pic's of toothies :twisted:

Till next time I wish everyone a lot of luck
