gettin BSB while the gettin is good - Page 2

Blue_Runner · #11 06-07-2012, 12:44 PM

Last time we fished for BSB I switched to 3 oz. hopkins jig. You did not even have to jig it. Just drop it down and hold on. I caught 5 or more to every 1 that the cut baiters caught - and they were bigger too. Everybody on the boat switched to a jig and we tore em up.

A buddy of mine who does not fish regularly was having a hard time catching one, let alone a keeper. I walked over to his side of the boat, dropped the jig in the water and asked him to hold my rod for a second. He looked at me like I was crazy - then reeled in a fish.

I gotta DISAGREE 100%. I must say seabass like nothin more than themselves to eat and the chunks stay on the hook alot better. I have caught double-digit seabass on one 2" peice. Just cant beat it!!!!

I will throw some seabass pics up next time I go since no one on here really cared to see Grouper or Cobia........

We do well on squid. I could see where cut bsb would work well, just don't get caught with it on the boat... they will cite you for it. Has to meet size/bag limit requirements and must be landed whole.

Squid is the bait of choice here also, when I have used clam they come but no were as much as with the squid

yes, I have used squid with much success, and jigs and teasers with squid or cut-up bergals(cunners). And I wouldn't normally buy clam, In fact I didn't intend to buy it. But we were strokin' it when my buddy called us to see what was up and he said "i told you you gotta have clam". It was kind of a running joke, anyways, we said #### it, lets go get some clam.

Now maybe by the time we got back out there they were hungry and probably would have eaten anything but we DID pound em on the clam.....

Clam does have the added benefit of hookin up with some Tog too even though they gotta go back...

Guess I'm a nobody.

That's fine. I'll stay off the fishing section and stick to posting up derelict project hulls off craigslist.
Hmmmph.
