    Ready to sell my bassboat!

    If I could figure out how to make as much money in Fla as I make in KY I would be gone in in a Min. and trade my bassboat for a new Pathfinder.

    Man those saltwater fish sure are fun. We've caught over 75 redfish in the last 3 days. very possiable over a hundred. All from 4 to 10 lbs.

    Destin in Oct. can be awesome. Took these pictures before we figured out how to really catch them. After we figured it out we were to busy for the camera.

    You can't beat that Roddy!!! Those dudes pull like trains and if they're in the slot, the blacken up on the grill fantastic!! That's what I like about saltwater fishing....most of it is great eating, easier to catch, and they fight better!

    Re: Ready to sell my bassboat! (BeeNix)

    I've caught just about every type of fish I've wanted to catch in fresh water, and a number of them that I didn't want to catch. Redfish is the one that I'm dreaming about now. One of these days I'll make it down there to get in on some of that. Nice fish!!

    once you fish in the big salt lake you don't want to waste your gas going to these mudd holes around here.

    Nice fish Roddy. Those redfish are great fun. I went the route of getting rid of my bassboat and got that Baycat. Didn't like it at all. Way too much hassle, salt water causing corrosion, taking the console down to get into the garage, it was a major pain. It seems I spent all my time working on and replacing wiring and circuit breakers.That's why I'm back in a bassboat. But who knows? You might like it. Me...give me the bass fishing. We catch a few reds down here, but nothing like in Florida or even Mississippi waters.

    Nice fish, I used to catch them every fall in the Cooper River when I lived in SC. They will drag a 17' bass boat around.

    We kept just a few. Not near as many as we could have. If Redfish jumped, they would be "Most Awesome".

    They're about like a bulldog on a leash! They just pull hard and go where they want!

    No, it's the bridge at the pass at Destin. We would run over by AJ's and catch bait. Supposed to be good fishing at the midbay bridge.
